Long story but wondering if I should drop her as a friend as her husband admitted to sexual acts with my goddaughter. She seems set in her ways- to stay with him and try to help him. This is his 2nd offence, she is downplaying this whole thing and seems to also blame her daughter without outwardly saying it. I have been friends with her for 10 years but can't see her side!

He has already admitted to this and she has been in foster care for almost a year. He comes into the restaurant I work at and I have to serve him coffee! It seems no matter what I say to her, she wants to stay by his side!

the most important thing is your goddaughter - is he's admitted his acts, he needs to be locked up, or failing that, she needs to be removed from the same house as him.
As godmother, your role to protect her supercedes your friendship with the mother, who's obviously lost sight of incapable of making a responsible decision right now.
you can't convince her, you can only protect her daughter if she won't do it herself.

That is not a friend. She has already picked her husband over you, so I think the decision is easy. I would write her a letter, then cut ties. That way the ball is in her court and she will have a lot to think about and do if she wants you in her life again.

You should definitely drop her. She is one of those desperate women who will choose a man over her child it is a very sad thing when this happens. There is no reason for you to be associated with her it will only cause you stress. You should definitely report this abuse if it hasn't been reported already.

Call child protection. NOWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!! Forget you friend think of the child. That is the victim here not you or your friend. If you know about it and do nothing to protect and support this child than you are just as guilty as him. This is the child's mother right? OMG- I have to go now before I scream.

I would report it to the authorities and to child services. That being said pray for your friend and her daughter.

If you were to report him he would be investigated and maybe sent to prison. At least that would separate him from the child. Do you like the child enoght to save him/her?
