Midge agony auntAn unhappy homelife for someone your age is hard. I have a number of friends that were in the very same situation at your age. I was however one of the lucky ones and had fantastic parents.

There is nothing that you can do to make matters easier for her. All you can do is be the best friend possible and be there for them when she is upset or heartbroken. A good friend in a situation like this is so important and having someone to talk to about their homelife is just as important.

Fortunately she is coming of age and with any luck she wont have to put up with it for much longer. Hopefully she will be going to college and will be able to get out of that life.

I also know how difficult it will be for you having to deal with her being unhappy and distraught all the time. There is nothing worse than watching someone in pain for no reason. Hopefully you may have someone that is understanding and a good listener. We are hear if you ever have to get things off your chest!

But just be the best friend you can be for her. Tell her that life will not always be like this and that it does get better!

Not much help I know, but its difficult to advise not knowing the full facts.

I would ask her if she wanted 2 talk 2 me about it or if maybe she wanted 2 get counsaling cus counseling can help alot!

If she did want 2 let her heart out 2 me I would listen 2 every word she has 2 say and try nd help!

Hope this helps!x
