They really liked each other and were getting on fine but he works at a primary school with children.Well they somehow found out about the relationship and told him that if he didnt end it then he would lose his job and get reported... can they do that?? is it legal??Now that they are not together any more she is really unhappy, she doesn't eat that much any more, she doesn't really talk to anybody other then me, and she gets reminded of him in everything she does..I feel useless, I want to know how I can help her.

First of all, the age gap - although not very big in some aspects - has quite an affect on people at that age. It must be really hard for the both of them, and I know what it's like to be completely useless when friends break up with their loves.All I can suggest is that either you talk to the boy and try to explain that if he really loves her, he would stay with her regardless of what people thought or threatened to do. He could maybe keep it a secret until she comes of age, and not do anything with her until she is 16.Or you could take her boy shopping ;) It's worked before with some of my friends. It could be healthy to get her out there and flirting with guys more around her age.Sorry if this didn't help at all :S I'm probably just as stuck about this as you are lol x
