My question involves guardianship in the State of: Kentucky.
my best friend is in an abusive family. her dad has physically, sexually, and verbally abused her. her mom mostly verbally abuses her. but this happens on a daily basis. she's told the school guidance counselor, shes talked to a police officer, my parents know, and her grandma is in disbelief about it. the school counselor couldnt do anything because she didnt have any "marks" no "evidence" so she couldnt help. she told someone and they arrested her dad and then she decided to give him a "second chance", but later she told me if he went to jail, whenever he got out he'd come looking for her, and kill her. but it def. made me mad she gave him that second chance. my parents have tried to help me but its hard when shes so afraid to do anything or seek any help. she has tried to commit suicide more than once. she ate a bunch of these pills her mom was prescribed for something and it made her extremely sick. she ended up having to get her stomach pumped, but she told the doctors she ate something and must have got "food poisoning".
the stories she tells me are very unsettling. im only 15! what am i supposed to do? ive talked to grown ups and that only got her mad at me. shes tried to run away a couple times, i still care about her, i dont want her on her own. but i dont want her in that house.
her parents wont sign guardianship papers either. they were extremely mad about that.
i figured maybe she can get an emancipation.
but the school guidance counselor told me that they're was no emancipation laws for kentucky?!?
what steps do i take to sort this out and help her with this legal stuff??
