[quote=Anonymous]I can't believe that people are telling you to stay out of it. This IS abuse and you should step in. Based on your description of the family dynamics, both you and the girl's father are hesitant to stand up for her because your sister turns the abuse on the adult instead. I don't think you are cowardly; it is natural to avoid this type of abusive confrontation. Confronting your sister's abusive behavior will not solve the problem, and you've been strategizing to get involved in the most effective way. It sounds like the girl's parents are not receptive to hearing about the abuse. I would talk to the therapist, who is a mandatory reporter and can advise the mother on revising custody agreements in order to keep her daughter safe. [/quote]
