[QUOTE="Nomad, post: 496528"] Is there another person in the family or a long time close friend who she respects who might be able to talk with her about this topic? Sometimes hearing it from multiple sources (other than parents) can be very helpful. If she stays there at such a young age, you might want to visit OFTEN and also make sure she is on birth control and gets the Gardisil injection. Additionally, if your family has a religious background, see if she could attend services nearby and then she would have the opportunity to speak with clergy (privately) should she have a question or feel threatened. If the situation worsens, likely simply because she is a little on the young side ,etc.) and have to return home, would it be possible for her to go back next year to this location? It is not worth her safety to keep her in an unsafe situation. I agree, it is wise to refrain from overtly speaking negatively about this guy, but at the same time, she should be protected. She is after all, under age. If she does return home, my guess is someone with this much motivation, would still do VERY well and continue to excel! Please don't think of this as some last ditch opportunity for such a young girl who seems very capable. Hopefully, this is just a passing phase and she will open her eyes to it all in short order. I'm keeping a good thought. [/QUOTE]
