first of all, if you bring this kid to your house his mother can bring your family up on charges.i know when you see someone going through this you seem helpless, but you know you can always make a call to child protective services. if you call the 1800 number you wont have to give your name. when someone knows that they are being watched by child protective they get worried and are less likely to be hitting on the kid. but if you do this, there is no turning back if they find she is doing this stuff, there is a good chance he will be taken away and you wont see him. maybe you should try to convince him to report this to someone.good luck

First of all she should be reported for child abuse, as she should not be able to get away with this behavior. Next discuss this with your parents and if suitable arrangements can be made to keep both of you safe then please do so. Make sure you have a place where he can sleep, without you both being tempted to take a bad situation and making it worse.

You really can't do anything about it. You CAN call the number of the 24-hour National Domestic Violence Hotline: 1-800-799-SAFE (7233) or 1-800-787-3224 (TDD).

Please get your friend to talk to somebody before it's too late. Please.

I would try to find out why she is doing this to him. Does she just want him out of the house because she want his dad and home to herself or is your boyfriend unhappy and causing trouble because he doesn't want her around?
