If your really worried then telling an adult is the best thing you can do....as a person who's mum did not care I really stress the importance of talking to a person that WILL or should understand how to help and not make the matter worse by not understanding......If you feel you have to tell an adult can you tell a school councilor who can then stress the importance of the best way to help him.......

yes I get thats its so frustrating to stand by and wonder if it worth the risk or trying to weight friendship up against the posiablity of loosing them or letting them loose them self to some negative. What eva you decide please try not judge your self harshly if things dont go smoothly for lack of a better word.
