Friends

[crystalgirl13]

I spent the night at my friends house for the first time last night and we where hanging out and her dad yells at her and tell her to get her a** in there. She says hold on and she finishes what where doing and walks in there, I here her scream and I here her  dad say, did you just tell me to hold on, I'll kill you little b****. She comes back in the room and she crying and she keeps telling me not to tell anyone at school and I tell her I won't tell anyone and I ask her what happened. She said he tried to choke her, her dad walked in the room and it was really quiet and awkward he just acted like nothing happened. So I tried to brush it off like maybe she was just making up or something. So we go upstairs and we were listing to music and we hear her mom come over (her parents where splitting up) so she just came over to get her stuff so my friend goes down stairs and hugs her mom and they talked for a second and her dad comes in and starts yelling at her mom and telling her if she didn't leave he was going to slit her throat and friend like dad, she just coming over to get her stuff. So her mom walks past her dad and gets her bags and stuff and she walks toward the door and her dad gets a knife out of the drawer and puts it to her moms through and my friend starts hysterically crying and I'm just standing there frozen like this can't be happening right now. Her mom yells at us to call the cops so we grab the phone and we start dialing 911 and he says, you know better katelyn you remember what happened last time.( katelyn is my friends name) so she hangs up the phone and runs upstairs. I'm just standing there while her dads holding a knife to her moms throat I have no idea what to do so I lock myself in the bathroom. I assume he let her mom leave because he starts pounding on the bathroom door so I run to the window and climb out of it and I started running home my house is only like 2 or 3 miles away, eventually I get tired and start walking when I finally get home my moms like "why are you home so early I thought you weren't coming home until tomorrow? I just told her that it was boring and they were busy. I feel so guilty for just leaving my friend with that monster. I haven't told anyone except you girls. Please help I don't know what to do.

Okay, first off, call the cops. I'm not going to give you that BS of tell an adult you trust. This is past that. Tell your mom the truth  and call the cops. Tell them exactly what you typed if they don't do anything, go and get your friend. Don't let her dad catch you if you have to go get her, though. Sneak her out, he won't know where she went. Have HER tell the police. She needs out NOW. Secondly, have you heard from her? if not, you need to do something even faster. For all you know, he might not have let her mom go, sorry to say. I know she said not to tell anyone, but if that were my friend, I'd rather she hate me than her dead. Yes, it's possible. Good luck and I really hope everything will be ok. I don't want to get all preachy, so whatever God you might or might not worship, I hope he's watching over you. God bless.

Tell your parents and report him to the police! Do everything you can, since it's an abused family they will often back down from reporting him. Don't let the abuser win, stand up, you are a witness, not to mention what could of happened to you if he had been able to break into the bathroom before you escaped.

He is extremely violent and there is no telling, when he could take the step to actually kill either your friend or her mom. Be their advocate if they are too afraid to stand up.

YOU CALL 911. What the heck do you think you should do when your friend's father is homicidal and has made threats on their life?

I'm glad the other gurls are saying this also and I cannot emphasize it enough; call the cops. If you're still scared you can leave it as an anonymous tip to your local police. If the father of your friend did what you say he did, he has extreme anger problems or really plans to kill. If you don't say anything something bad could happen to your friend and her mom so it's for your friends sake that you must call the cops so that they can get out of this dangerous situation.
