Re: Friend is Controlled By Her Parents? -

Hi there,
I think it's nice of you to want to help your friend! I think all you can do is offer to be there for her if she ever needs anything. Other than that, maybe you can encourage her to do the things she's interested in doing despite the disapproval of her parents. Your friend is over eighteen; she's legally an adult, so she doesn't need her parent's permission to visit you, or to get a job. You said that your mom had similar parents, so maybe you can ask your mom how she would have wanted to be helped when she was your friend's age.
If clarity's in death, then why won't this die?
Years of tearing down our banners, you and I
Living for the thrill of hitting you where it hurts
Give me back my girlhood, it was mine first
The axe forgets, but the tree remembers
