She might be putting herself in danger.Old NFOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16404197287935017147noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2970975545475697571.post-24882295738958007052015-02-27T18:02:21.288-05:002015-02-27T18:02:21.288-05:00My police officer husband says there's really ...My police officer husband says there's really nothing you can do unless you think something is happening right now. As in, you're on the phone with her and she starts hollering and screaming...then you can send the police. But really it's something she will need to do herself...often they'll get to a domestic call only to have the victim deny that anything is wrong. If the officer can see that the victim has been beaten he can arrest the offender, but if the victim doesn't press charges he'll just come back home, and probably do more damage in retaliation. I'd say best thing Belladonna can do is be there if her friend decides she needs to talk, and encourage her to leave. Like PawPaw said, Little Ducky has got to decide that for herself.

Little Ducky ...I've seen this a hundred times. Little Ducky suffers from a lack of self-esteem and from the lack of having a father figure. While The Bum is to blame, he's also an integral part of the equation. He needs her, and she needs him. It's really a sick, sick paradigm. You aren't going to talk sense to the bum, but you probably won't talk sense to the Duck. She needs him, and will protect him. In all my years of dealing with those types of relationships, I've only seen a couple of women walk away successfully, and that's only after SHE decides to get a handle on her self-esteem.Pawpawhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14959820068377494313noreply@blogger.com
