Question

My daughter has a friend that is being abused. The girls brother talked her into haveing sex with him when she was eleven,he was 17. After he did that he killed his self. The girls dad gets drunk and hits her in the arm and has slaped her before. The girl is 14 now. The grandma gets mad and cusses her and pulls her hair. The girl is haveing sex and trying to sell drugs. I got this info from my daughter, My daughter is the opposite of this girl, she thinks that she herself is going to save her. What can i do for this girl that wont break my daughters trust in me and that wont make her friend hate her for telling someone. Im not trying to be my daughters friend i just want her to keep confideing in me. My first instinct his to tell my daughter to stay away from her and call defacs on the girls family. But i cant do that because i will push her away and make her hang around with this girl even more.

Well it sounds like this girl really needs help. There really is no way to help her without telling someone. Your daughter will understand when she see's how much it will help her friend. Honestly I wouldn't want my daughter to hang out with her because it may get her into lots of trouble. It's not this girls fault that her life is so messed up but she could influence your daughter and I wouldn't take that risk if I were you. I'm not saying your daughter isn't a great girl either. I'm sure she is but sometimes influence gets the best of us. Someone really needs to call social services now before it's too late for this girl.

Call child and family services, and maybe get someone from cfs to sit your girl down and talk to her about the situation. This sort of thing is out of both of your hands, and should be delt with by the authorities. Your daughter may feel a little confused and betrayed, but after talking to someone from CFS she'll understand it's all good, and she'll be thankful later.

This is a hard one to answer. I think you should sit down with your daughter and her friend, and weigh out all the options. Maybe you could get into foster parenting and let her stay with you. Either way, explain to your daughter that you are only trying to help, and by helping you only want what is best for her as well.Good Luck, I hope this helps.

I am sorry to say, but haven't you ever thought of telling someone? Shes involved with drugs and teen sex. I know you are worried about your daughter  but you absolutley need to tell someone, maybe I don't quite understand your question but I hope I helped.

Keep your daughter away from her or she'll be just like her soon and stop getting info on this girl unless you plan to do something about it!

Contact your local CPS office.  If you KNOW all of these things, you have a duty to protect that child!  Get the authorities involved NOW!!

tell your daughter what u think...tell somebody to help your daughter's friend...if she gets mad at you try telling her what would've happened to her friend and that it was for her own good

tell someone.  your daughter doesn't have to know you are the one who told. you can tip off child services anonymously.
