[QUOTE="meowbunny, post: 205502, member: 3626"] First and foremost, HUGS. She's under 18. Seems like you could press charges against him. Get her to an abuse clinic or shelter. Let the women there talk to her. Ask the police to tell her the horror stories they've seen, the women killed and serously njured by their abusers. It will have a lot more impact than anything you could ever say. Sadly, it is hard for some to let go of their abusers. As you said, she feels she deserves it. It takes tremendous strength to walk away from that. Many women tolerate it for a lifetime. I would definitely be talking to the boyfriend and letting him know that if she walks in with another bruise anywhere for any reason, you are calling the police and charging him with abuse. And, no, you don't care if the bruise is because she fell down. I'd also be letting my child know that I will be checking her body for bruises on a weekly basis. My daughter did date one guy I really didn't like. He was verbally abusive to her in front of me. I told him (1) he would not speak to my child that way either in front of me or behind my back and (2) it better go no farther because if he laid a hand on her at the very least he would be in jail and be grateful to be there because if I got my hands on him I'd guaranty a castration. I'm not sure why but he quit dating her about a week after that conversation. Broke my heart. No one and I mean NO ONE hurts my daughter and gets away with it. If she can't or won't protect herself, I will. Mine has known that since she was 5. [/QUOTE]
