[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The poor girl! I can't believe all these people saying she should "just run away and stay there till she turns 18". My son is almost 18 right now and my heart breaks at thinking of him needing to leave his home, and school, and friends, and job, and everything he knows, to go sleep on someone's couch because I was unable to protect him from an abusive father.[/quote] People are saying that in response to the mother’s inability to protect her and OP wanting to marry her off to “a friend”. I’m sure you would do everything in your power to protect your son except marry him off to a grown woman. At that point, couch-surfing would seem like the more logical alternative.[/quote] Right. She's almost 18. It's not that uncommon for high school seniors with bad home situations to go live with a friend for a while. Happened in my family. It can be a healthy choice, actually. [/quote]
