What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?
Florida
Can a friend of mine get relocated out of her own house to her friends house?
Okay so my friend is 16, we are in Florida, and she gets abused weekly if not daily... This has been going on for several years and I really want to help her.
We tried contacting the police but the police are always on the mom's side... they also keep sending the same policemen so that doesn't help the case because they dont do ANYTHING to help the daughter.
Her outside family cannot take her with them so the only choice is friends. She doesn't want to go to a foster home as well.
She COULD make her mom go to jail but doesn't want to since her siblings would be sent to foreign home like a foster home and she doesnt want to do that.
The mother ONLY abuses the eldest daughter, who is 16, Physically and Verbally, The mother has called her a slut and accuses her of sleeping with family members... sometimes hits the daughter... One time was with an umbrella and the other was with a Cable.
She refuses to let the daughter get out of the house and wont let her go anywhere.
We also tried calling the guidance counselor but that didnt help.
I am aware what is, and the consequences of Emancipation but I dont think she can support herself so I dont think this is a choice.
Her blood bound family/relatives dont want to take her in for unknown reasons.
She WANTS to live with her best friend that she knew since she was a child but the mother wont allow it.
She doesnt have a way to contact me or take evidence of the abuse she receives since her mother didnt give her a phone or any device to communicate with others apart from the school computer which she takes from her daughter... school is also ending on the 9th of June so we need to hurry.
The mother is Bi-polar and the father is in Mexico, clearly she needs therapy but she never goes to receive it.
Can you please give me some advice so I could help her specifically.
Please we tried everything we can think of.
