So, my friend has parents that are ass'. her dad recemtly threatened to kick her out of the house and i find that bad because she is only 14. she doesnt do anything wrong either. she was grounded from all electronics today for a month because she was busy studying for finals, and was trying to catch up in school and couldnt vacum. i want to help her, but all the advice i give her stinks.
Some of the stuff her dad says iss pretty brutal, he called her a motherf*cking cunt who sits on her ass all day. He says she needs to cook and clean more, even though she cooks dinner everynight and is constantly cleaning the house. I dont know what to tell her, and growing up with very forgiving parents, i only came to one conclusion, report him to child services, or call the kids help phone.
i need advice, i dont want her to be stuck inside all summer while im out with all my friends. any help?? :what:

You should invite her to VT. On a serious note, that sounds like serious abuse. You can report the parents to a councelor or some authority figure.

I think reporting him is the best you can do, that is an awful situation, and like the poster above me said, it sounds like abuse.
But first talk to her to see what she thinks about it.

Good luck :)

I understand that teens can more than often be expected to help with chores and such, but I do find that ridiculous. Of course, every household is different, as are parenting styles. As bad as it sounds, it's their business as to how the discipline her as long as it isn't abusive. Now, with the vulgar name calling and the threats to kick her out, that does fall under verbal abuse.

I have to ask, what does her mother do when this takes place?
Does she sit back and let it go on?
Or has she tried having some sort of intervention?

You could call child's services, or urge her to do so,
Though I'd use that as a last resort if it can't be settled any other way.

There's always the option of a school counselor,
As they can help assess the situation at her home,
And help her in choosing the right course of action to take.

i talked to her about it and she said her mom usually starts to yell at her about it then her dad joins in. now shes cutting herself. :(

i insisted she report him but she refused, she said "hes my dad, and i dont wanna report him"

i seriously need to help her, she is too scared to get kicked out to go to a councilor. help
