Hi,

So I was having a chat with an online friend who has a T earlier. She is very confused/concerned about something and was asking me things that I could not answer, so I told her I would ask here to maybe help her out

I guess there is some current abuse, not sure what type, going on in her family. She did not say to whom, but said she has witnessed it often but is scared to ruin her family by saying anything.

So she was asking me the following, does anyone know the answers??

-- If she tells her T and her T reports it, does anything happen to them such has her T referring her to someone else?

--What exactly happens when a an abuse report is filed? Will her family know it was her who said something? Will some of her family end up in jail?

She is in the USA

Any help would be great so I can try to help her with her decision. Thank you
