Luckily, you can't swing a dead cat without hitting an abused woman center so she's in 'luck'.
Enough talky, bro! |
Wow...guess I'm just slow here. I know that you all have Vernetta's best interest at heart but...I'm not sure what to do,were more or less just work friends we typically don't hang out,outside of work.
So I'm at a loss as to what I could do to better this situation. She obviously doesn't want help and is shutting anybody out that cares for her. But again not knowing her address unsure how to best help her by calling the police, where are they going to go???
What do I say "somewhere in south Phoenix a girl named Vernetta is being abused by her boyfriend." "Well sir do you have an address so we can investigate?" "No sorry officer I don't know where she lives." Click!
But if it's any consolation I'm talking to her cousin.Telling her to do all the stuff that you guys are telling me to do. She has more access to her then I do (and should she want) she knows where she lives and can perhaps intervene or get a family member to intervene or the police.
