How Can I Help a Friend Get Out of an Abusive Situation?
A 24 year old girl I met a while back is having problems with her children’s father. She’s told me that he has threatened her before, but has never admitted to him actually hitting her. He also has a history of drug abuse and violent behavior. I want to know if there is anything I can do to help her?
