Welcome to Gaia! ::

My friend from gaia just told me his sister told someone their parents beat her. He may be taken away...We may never chat again...I..I can faint easily..I'm really dizzy..I can feel it coming...If he gets taken away..I'll...End up doing something stupid...He got me out of depression...He helped me through alot..The thing is..His parents love them both..his sister is lying...He would've told me if his parents were beating them...How can I help him prove shes lieing???

I'm sorry but there isn't a whole lot you can do. I know this is very traumatic for you but online friends are just that. Online friends. When you don't know them it real life you are pretty powerless to help. Support him the best you can but you are going to have to come to terms with the fact that he may be leaving your life.

I don't know what to tell you, but I was friends with a girl back in junior high school that lied and said her stepfather was abusive to her, when he really wasn't... she just didn't like the guy, probably because she felt he invaded her life and she didn't approve of her mother marrying him. She saw it as the only way of getting him out of her life - which was a pretty stupid solution, because of course that doesn't work. She even went around school bragging that she had lied about everything, so when the police came and asked her friends if they had witnessed him do anything - it was blatantly clear that she was lying - especially since there was no physical evidence of him touching her.

If this girl you say starts claiming things like child molestation, however, that's another thing entirely. Only rape can usually be proven with evidence after the fact, but even that is still pretty sketchy. I'd say your friend's family will probably have this all thrown out, but they're really in it for the long haul. Sometimes families can have the police investigating them for weeks, if not months or more.

When I was in grade school one of my friends told someone that my parents were abusive and there was a massive investigation. It was rediculous. Your friends sister is just doing it out of angst and for attention. They should not be able to take them away from their parents without interviewing all members of the family. That means that when they interview your friend, your friend can tell them that their parents are great parents and let them know they love them very much, and they love your friend also. Then your friend should answer all of their questions carefully and make sure to tell them that the sister is just doing this stuff for attention.

Everything will be fine. ^-^
