I know this isnt exactly a 'friendship' question but my friend is in real trouble. *
Hes 16, his dad is a drunk, hes got a step mom, and brothers and sisters. Hes my ex boyfriend. He doesnt live in the same state as me but his dad beats him. He pukes all the time from it. Its horrible. He cant do anything about it bc everytime he tells someone his dad denys it and says he plays all these sports and he skateboards so he could have gotten them from somewhere else. His dad only beats on him and none of his other brothers and sisters. i dont know what to do but i mean i really want to help him and i really need to help him. he needs to get out of there fast. ive tried havin him go to the cops but his dad uses the same story. nothings. working. someone please help me! i really want to help him out but i dont know how :// im scared for his life.

Get some evidence.. hide a camera or something somewhere .. and have it on tape ..then send it to the cops .. I hope he's alright.. but u gotta get him safe before his dad outrages .. majorly!:-( [ ShudaBeenAbLonde's advice column | Ask ShudaBeenAbLonde A Question ]

Or tell him to always have a phone by him and when his dad starts hitting him find a way to secretly hit 0 or 911 so that someone can hear what is going on.
