Please, please, please can you all help me here. My neice stayed with us at the weekend and she has confessed to me that she hates her father (my brother) and her nan (my mother) - she is living with them both and not her mother - abuse has been going on for some time. They are giving her no space, she says he is not her dad, she doesnt want to live there and says it is worse there than living with her mother and boyfriend (he abused my neice as well). I am at my wits end with worry for her, this is so close to home for me I cannot bear it - I feel I want to keep her safe and take her away from all the abusive environment that she is in. Its a very complex situation but I have my own family to think of I know, but I feel I need to DO SOMETHING to help this innocent, totally mixed up child. I drove her home Sunday night and she didnt want to go back - we ended up driving a whole hour and her telling me everything - begging me not to take her home. I cried all the way back on my own, feeling I had left her there with them. Please someone guide me with this.
