This is too bad. I applaud you for being so supportive of your girlfriend. But you know, she's 22 years old and she's of legal age! I don't know if you're in the United States of not, but it MOST countries, 22 is old enough to be on your own! She doesn't NEED her parents approval to do ANYTHING. She has the legal right to LEAVE her parents home without their permission!!! They cannot MAKE her stay there! They have NO power over her.
So if she wants to leave, she can! Why is she so afraid of them? What are they going to do to her if she leaves? Can't you two get AWAY from them? Don't you have the resources to get away? Or doesn't she want to?
If you do NOT live in the U.S., you could move to another city. OR if you got the proper paperwork, and had enough money, you could even move to the United States! They cannot stop you! She's old enough to go wherever she wants!
What is stopping her from leaving? If it's fear of her parents because they'll beat her or something, she NEEDS to get out of there!! If they're abusive, she NEEDS to leave!! That's not a safe place for her. She should NOT be living in an abusive atmosphere.
Again, I'm glad she has you to support her. If there's something you can do about her situation, and she's willing to go, then do it. I wish you the very best. God bless & take care. Hugs, Lee
