my friend has a tough life, she gets beat up everyday

by her foster parents and won’t strike back because shes scared that they’re going to hurt her more. i am the only person who knows this and i feel like its my responsibilty to tell a counselor or a teacher or even my mom. i told her to report them i mean its not like there your real parents but shes scared she’s going to get seperated by her brother and never see him anymore and so she still stays there as much as i want to report them i dont because i want to keep our friendship but at times i just want her to be happier. what should i do?

the social services would never seperate the two of you, if they took her away from the parents, then they would probably take her brother too… remember you can always report this anonymously if that helps you…

Yeah you gotta tell someone. Your right it is your responsability.

There are ways she can stick with her brother. IF she’s already living with him now they are probably going to get her to stay with him anyway cuz its less disruptive.

She cant get beat…i know you think that the abuse right now is bad. But this is going to haunt and torture her for the rest of her life…so the sooner you can help to get her out the sooner she can start recovering, and she can do this with her brother. Dont worry.

You can do it on behalf of your friend too.

They wont just storm in…they will conduct a proper investigation all by themselves. They might be able to help the parents aswell as the chilren.

More children could get hurt if this isn’t stopped…

It will be. You can ring them up and the number wont even appear on the phone bill, not even your parents would know you’ve rang them.

If you do it online or by phone, you don’t have to give your name. You can tell them how you know and tell them that you want to remain completely anonymous.

I promise you it will be. If you look on that website there is somewhere that tells you this aswell.

Good luck, you are so brave trying to help your friend.

Thanks. When i was at school all the kids were taught about this, it was compulsory. I think its a good idea, to give kids some support incase they had a problem at home. And its always stuck with me.

foster care programs usually do not like splitting up bothers and sisters. you still should report them or they will not stop snd it could only get worse.

You should report them but i would tell ur parents if u could adoped ur friend and how old is her brother if he is younger adoped him 2 but if he is older like older
Enogh 2 find a job then adoped him 2 but if you dont have a lot of rooms in your house i would try the best untill he gets some money so he can afford a bed.
