I believe that my friends dad is abusing him. He constantly puts him down on/off the field and blatantly says he is nothing compared to his step brother. (Soccer) i play on the same team as him and we just lost very badly, but his step-brother of the same age plays for the youth squad of whitecaps (MLS). He told me that he is having bad troubles at home but does not want to talk about it. After frustration of not winning he left our team group chat and i feel he is going to quit. I want to help him badly. I told him after he quit the chat that in order to succeed on the field he needs to leave his emotions off the pitch. But i think i pinched a nerve. Is what i said good or bad? How do i help him through this? I feel that he badly needs help and i dont know how to help him.We are 16 btw.
