Question - (3 June 2009) 1 Answers - (Newest, 3 June 2009)
A female United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

I don’t know what to do. My best friend is going through a lot right now. Her dad left her mom bt still comes back every once in awhile and even when my friend does good things her mom ignores it. She called me a few minutes ago crying saying how her mom said she was ugly and told her to go to her room cause she’s disgusting and then her little brother was yelling at her saying where’s my phone and she tried to stay calm and say I don’t have it but he kept yelling so she yelled back and her mom came upstairs and started hitting her with a belt and made her leg bleed and hurt her eye. Her mom then told her you’re not doing anything this summer and I'm going to make sure I call your friends parents and tell them not to let your friends be around you. and its messed up cause even if my friend cleans the whole house, cooks, takes care of her dog, and keeps her grades up her mom would say your grounded when she didn’t do anything and my friend didn’t get to do anything at all not even go to the 8th grade dance or field trip or anything and yet she was there for her mom when she would cry and blab about how sad she was.

Anyways back to when I was on the phone with her, while she was crying I tried to cheer her up and give her advice and her mom walked in and said "you’re rebelling again! When are you going to stop??!" and I really didn’t want her to get in even more trouble so I hung up and prayed. What should I do? I really don’t want her in that house and I’m worried and I can’t take her in my house cause her mom will know and it’s all unfair. How can I help her? I don’t think there’s a way cause her dads a cop and they are just ruining her life and breaking her down slowly. Please tell me what I can do. Thank you p.s we are both 14.

niki20 agony auntyou can call child protective services and she can get adopted out to a better family. b/c she is only 14 theres no way legally that you guys can go about this examples being oving in together etc.....so if your scared for her, if you truely think that she shoupd not be there give cps a call or even talk to a teacher or the principle at school, they could direct you futher, or they probably would take action themselves.
