father son relationship - unhealthy?
ok so my best friend told me something and made me promise not to tell anyone, so if she knew i was writing this, shed kill me. heres what happened:
shes 13 im 13 and her crush is 13. she was somewhere i dont remember where but her crush was standing there with his father. and this guys a pretty big kid, and i mean hes pretty strong so id imagine he doesnt scare easily. but anyways he said something and the dad grabbed him by the arm really hard and she said he looked scared. and i know fathers can get strict and have a temper and maybe loose it sometimes, but when she told me about what she saw, it kind of scared me. and she said he might have seen her watching. and in school the past couple of days hes been avoiding both of us, like barely saying a word at all. so it makes me wonder if his father hurts him at all. ive never seen any marks or anything like that but ive never really made it a point to look either. i cant talk to him about it because my best friend would absolutly never trust me again. she trusted me to keep it a secret and i dont know how to approach the situation either because once again, it could just be his dad loosing his temper. but then again, why would he be avoiding us? please help.. i cant tell anyone so thats why maybe i thought you could help me with some advice?

There really isn't to much evidence right now that he is abused. You are right about that. You should keep an eye on him and watch for something but don't say anything unless you have some good evidence.
It could be his dad lost his temper. The crush may have seen your friend and is now embarrassed. That would make him avoid you guys. He probably figured she would say something to you.
What I would do is just go up and talk to him as if nothing happened. If he brings it up and wants to talk about it that's great. If he doesn't mention it
then you guys don't mention it either.
Do keep a watch for unusual bruises and stuff though.
