Suicide is never an answer. It is a permanent solution to a temporary problem that does have solutions.


If your "friend" is actively suicidal call the Police. There are many different types of abuse all of which are wrong, most of which are illegal and the police can handle immediately.


Don't allow calling the police to scare you. The police are there to help you or your friend in situations like this. Not all parents that are abusive go to jail for their abuse. It depends on the type of abuse. If the abuse is sexual or physical then yes the father goes to jail because that is where he belongs.


Your friend, her mother and her siblings could even get mad at you for calling the police; let them. Better to have a live friend who is made at you then a dead friend.


After the police have corrected the situation, then your friend should call the following number. This number is for a 24 hour hotline operated by an organization called RAINN which stands for; Rape, Abuse, Incest, National Network. They are there 24/7 365 days ready to help people like your friend. If your friend is not actively suicidal you might suggest she call them now. Their number is:1-800-656-HOPE. You also can call this number for advise as to what to do for your friend.


Don't let your friend do something you will all regret later. Call the Police or talk with your parents and ask them to call the Police for you.

I'm assuming this is about you, according to the quotatin marks. If it is you, or 'her' than 'she' needs to tell someone she trusts about her father. It isn't right. She needs to get him help. Suicide isn't the way to go. Shes going to let her father get the satisfaction by her losing her life? She was given a life for a reason, not just to kill herself when things get tough. There are other ways out. If she scared to talk to somene, than thats her fault.

Either she can continue to get beat, or she can man up and get help.

Either way suicide isn't the way to go. I'm sure if she died, her father would miss her terribly; and even if he wouldn't; his loss. Don't waste your life because some 'man' beats you. The reason why I say 'some man' is because a real father wouldn't do that. He is no father. He is a coward.

Your friend needs to get proof and go to the police. Whether you record it by a cell phone or take photos etc.

Suicide is NOT the answer or the way out, Anything is conquerable but you need to take the right steps. The police can help you, School guidance counselor, Someone you trust but let an adult know. Trust me these things can be resolved if you seek the proper help. I was in an abusive living environment for 21 years but it got A LOT better. Suicide wasn't my answer and it is not yours.
