love-him agony auntHey babe, she needs to tell someone other than you. This is a serious aligation and the police need to be informed. Imagine if he does this to someone else she may believe it is her fault. I had a friend who her brother did this to her for 9 years of her life and she didnt understnad realy what was happening. She now regretts that she didnt go to the police as he has now done it too her little sister. Please talk to her and try to reassure her that she needs to go to the police.

Mail me if you would like to talk x

AskEve agony auntShe needs to report him to the Police or he could do it to someone else. Go along with her for moral support. She did nothing wrong and will be treated gently by them. No one will blame her at all but she DOES need to have him stopped from ever doing this again. Tell her it's important that she tells the Police AND her mum and dad asap.

Firstly, she needs her friend around her. I was molested by a family member at the age of 15 and it destroyed me. But, my parents, sisters and friends were with me all the way. She definately needs to tell her parents NOW. If its something that has just happened, she needs to do it quick because any evidence will be destroyed within a matter of days and in some cases hours. She really needs you to be with her, and keep telling her that it wasnt her fault as the first thing that goes through your mind is, what did I do to "ask" for this! Reassure her that everything will get better!

SexKitten69 agony auntHi,

Firstly I think this issue must be addressed, even if it means sitting down with her mum and dad and explaining what has happened. I think if your friend does decide to do this that you as her friend should be with her and provide her with some support as she probably trusts you (She wouldn't have told you otherwise).

It's a difficult situation but needs to be addressed! If it was me in this situation as a parent I would definitely sort the issue out and the 'uncle' would be no-where near her!

By your friend telling her parents she is no-way going to be shouted at and I know that opening up about this sort of subject is extremely difficult as it can bring back horrible memories, I'm sure that once your friend has opened up about the subject that her family will give her full suport and take action against this sort of thing.

I hope your friend does tell someone about this as like I said above please support her and try to get her to tell someone asap!

I hope that everything works out for her

Regards

Kaz
