Crying..and trying to help.?

Question

My friend just called me crying and she is tellling me that her parents are fighting and she thinks that they are drunk. What should i tell her to do.

Answer 1

Maybe you should tell her to come over and that if she thinks it's going to get violent she should call the police and tell them that her parents are fighting really bad and she's afraid they will hit each other. I suggest you try to convince her to sleep over at your place if she is really helpless and doesn't want to call the police on them. Good luck, sorry

Answer 2

i agree with the first answer..however it sounds like this would be too much for you to get too involved so tell your mother..maybe she could just preten and "casually" call them to see how things are and then invite your friend over...but your mom needs to know because if this is normal at her house it's not the real normal so she may need to live somewhere safe for a long time to come....a childrens social service may need to get involved....or maybe your mom could call the police on  them and tell them what's going on...they will do a "well check" to see if she and they are ok....that may be your best bet and if you can't tell your mom....you call the police and say your a kid and they won't tell who told....good luck to you and your friend....she's crying out for help to you I hope you can help her...
