What can you really do aside from being the best friend you can be to her. If it was me I'd ask her. If you go to school where there is a counselor, I'd go with her to talk to them as well. The problem with what happened is confronting the whole family with this indiscretion. So instead of your friend worrying about what teens should, she now has an "adult" issue weighing on her mind.
Did she see just the incoming text or the return text saying yes or no. Her mom could have said no, screw off, don't contact me again. Somehow, without causing further issues, the truth needs to come out. She doesn't need to carry this pain with her, if her mom said no and has no intentions of leaving.
Please remind her of this: Just because this had happened, the behavior of her parents DOES NOT determine who she has the possibility of becoming in her life.
