I agree that this girl needs to seek help in her area. Even the smallest most remote communities have battered woman’s shelters, emotional abuse qualifies.
I feel really bad for you both. You are listening to a horrible situation that a loved one is going through and are powerless to do anything about it. I feel for her not only because she’s living the horrible situation, but she appears to be waiting for someone else to fix it. Until she takes the steps to help herself and her child, no one else can help her.
I would suggest the next time she calls that you recommend she look in the yellow pages to find the nearest woman’s shelter in her area. They will take collect calls and provide transportation to the facility.
