My 16yr old good friend i just recently learned is being abused at home by his step father, ex being pushed down steps, hit and such. Heres the odd part, he has taken action, called child services, in which the result was a foster home for 2 weeks and then back home, thats it! He talked to school guidence counslers and the principle, they called child services and the case was closed the next day. His other friend has witness one of these events, but his friend is still an adolesent like him.

He does have somewhere he could run away to but, what are the laws regarding that, could his parents bring him back by force or would he be clear, what are the laws in ohio pertaining to this, and do u have any advice on how to make a solid case to plea to a court so he can feel safe again.

  1. Try these people they might have more info.  Sadly the foster care system in Ohio is seriously overcrowded...
