WWYD?

So, my friend's dad was busted for child porn this morning in that ring in Ontario.  I have never met any of her family, just her.  Would you say something to her up front, or just listen if she needs to talk?  I kind of want to let her know I am here if she needs me, but I have no idea what I would say to her.

Re: WWYD?

  • I would say just what you mentioned: "I am here to listen if you need me"

    And then just wait for her to contact you. What an awful position for her to be in. I'm sure she feels so confused and betrayed right now.

  • How close of a friend?

    And how did you find out?

  • She's a fairly close friend.  And it was all over the news yesterday.  There was a big press conference.

  • Tough situation. If you are close (like talk on a very regular basis and not just on FB) then I would reach out to her. Otherwise I would wait for her to come to you.

    In that case I would call her and let her know that if she needs someone to listen, hang out with and not talk about it or if there is anything else that you can do for her that you are still her friend, you don't think less of her and you're here.  That you care for her and know this must be very difficult and painful and she's not alone.

  • If you're quite close to her, I would definitely reach out to her and let her know you are there if she needs a shoulder to lean or cry on. I'm sure she's devastated by the news and a good friend to lean on will help.
