Great idea for abuse month!

I'm already a subscriber.

I've been in the situation where a friend of mine was being abused. I've found that it's best not to be gentle about (at least with her it wasn't). I tried that route, but then decided to just be blunt and tell her what her life or unlife was going to be like if she didn't get out.

Great Contest!

I think...I would tell my friend that she needs to get out of the situation now, or the rest of her life is will be in misery.

I blogged about it.

Hi. :)
I'm already a follower.
I actually did just talk to a friend who was getting into an unhealthy relationship and I said anything I could to see that, including bringing up Chris Brown and Rhianna. Which was probably a little low, but it worked.

And I posted about your abuse month here: http://lainahastoomuchsparetime.blogspot.com/2009/04/heads-up.html

I've had a friend go through abuse. I saw how hard it was on her, me and her other friends. I was always there for her to listen and anything else that she needed. She knew that she could talk to me whenever wherever and that I would listen. Her dad gets drunk every day, he would hit her and yell at her. So she turned to cutting, drugs, guys, and later she even started drinking. I told her anything i thought would help her. I tried to scare her, everything. She didnt always listen to me, but i think the thing that helped her the most, was knowing that i would always be there for her no matter what, that i would always listen.

i blogged about it here, http://anotherpageisused.blogspot.com/2009/04/child-abuse-month.html.

and i put a link in the post(:

Great contest in light of abuse month!

+2 For already being a subscriber

Being a friend of someone who is being abused is a tricky place to be. They tend to be either too insecure about themselves so they think they desrve what is happening to them (which they never do), or they neevr let their guard down to let you in. Like, I said it's tricky. I think what you have to let them know is that you are their for them, no matter what.

I'm following.

Yeah, abuse is a very touchy subject and if I had a friend who was goin through that I would want them to feel like they could talk to me about it. I'd like to think I could get them out of it, but I don't know what I would actually do if in that situation.

A Reader said...

I would tell my friend to think about what she would do for a friend in a similar situation. then I would do it for her.
Thanks for the giveaway!

Abuse can affect so one so much, even after it's over. They never think it's over and they need a lot of help from people that love them. And sometimes that is harder to do than to say because sometimes it's just hard to break from old habits.

I young relative was in an sexually abusive situation. I told her her abuser is in jail, to not allow him to continue ruining her life. She is doing amazingly well.

Great book thank you for the contest

I just found out about your blog and I think it's great what you're doing for this month!

I am now following you (stalker sound there)

Honestly, I have no clue what I would say to my friend, except to make sure they realize that what is going on isn't their fault. No one should be treated like that.

This sounds like a great book.

I would tell my friend to have a plan. Have a place to go that he doesnt know about and leave when he is gone. It will not get better. He will not change.
