My friend is having very serious problems please tell me how
I have a friend that has lived with both of her parents all of her life. They have always had problems and got divorced about a year ago but her mom can't make it on her own so her dad still lives with them. This is hard for my friend because she is just 14 and doesn't understand. Her dad has a problem with alcohol and when he drinks they all fight and she gets mad and says things she doesn't mean. How do I help my friend know that everything is going to be okay?

Unfortunately we cannot make it okay for her. She has things in her life we cannot control and it is not up to you to save or rescue her from things beyond your power. However, just knowing she has you on her side cheering for her and encouraging her might make it easier for her to get through the adult drama. Life is wonderful, but not all the time. We all go through real crap at sometime in our lives, and friends help by sticking with us and holding our hand when we need, or just being there to listen. You don't have to fix anything to be a friend. Just let her know you care and are not leaving her.

You just need to tell her and comfort her and be there for her. Find time for you guys to hang out like go to the moviess, go for ice cream stuff to get her mind off it. Also for more fun get more people to like throw a party or go out somewhere and have some fun! It would make her feel better especially if she knew her friend was there for her!
