well, what exactly is it that makes you think she might be being sexualy abused. get back to me on this one- because it can be embarassing toher if u bring it up ne day, and nothing's going on, or if something is really going on, to not do anything about it. i can help you out. just clue me in. lamewithakause@yahoo.com ]
If you are suspecting it at the very least, talk to your friend first. She will know it is very serious and if so try and talk her into going with you to maybe the police station or just someone that will listen that might be able to help. She will probably say no, just remind her how serious it can be and how bad it can get if she doesn't do something about it right away. I hope I helped and maybe gave you a few ideas of how to help this situation out. I wish the best of luck to you and your friend! ]
I'm not sure about where you live, but in my state there is a SPEAK-OUT hotline. It does not have collar ID so it doesn't know who you are. They help you solve your problems.
If you do not like that idea, also try to talk to your friend about it or even your parents/guardians!!If what your saying is true, then your parents may do something about it. Even if that means taking your friend away from her dad. If that's what's best for her, then that's what you need to do. ]
If you're best friends just ask her next time something makes you suspect. If she is let your parents know and maybe they can help you figure out who to contact in your area. :) ]
You have the right to be worried. You NEED to ask her about it, there isn't another way to be positive if she's being abused or not.
When you two are alone, tell her this:
"Hey, ____ (name), I've been worried about you. I've been suspecting that your dad has been sexually abusing you. (Tell her the reasons why you think that she's being abused) Is this true? If it is, you can tell me. I can, and I will, help you."
Let her know that you're there for her through this time, if her dad really is abusing her. Also, be calm when you approach her about it.
If she really is being abused, you need to tell somebody. Sexual abuse is against the law, and it is serious. Even if she asks you to not say anything to anyone, you need to be a good friend and get her help.
If she isn't really being abused, then just say:
"Oh, sorry. I was just worried, that's all."
I hope your friend is okay and that everything turns out well.
I hope I helped, and if you have any more questions, feel free to leave one in my inbox!

Try to bring up sexual abuse to her in a non-direct way. You dont say what makes you think this may be happening, but whatever it is, I think you should talk to your parents about it. Tell them why you are worried. Something needs to be done no matter what. Even if it turns out there is nothing bad going on, at least you will know you did the right thing. If she IS being abused she needs help NOW. ]
this sounds like a tough situation but you shouldnt be too pushy on asking her about it let her know you care and you love her and let her know that she can talk to you about anything and wait for her to come out and say it by herself then if she does then you should take some legal action. hope i helped -Flash ]
This is really hard..i would talk to your parents about it they might have a better anwser since they know your friend, and maybe there parents. i think that is an awful thing and i hope everything works out! IM me if you need to ]
