I have a friend (F19) that is in an abusive relationship with (M19) problem is she is afraid to get out bc she is scared of what he will do, she also has a 1yr old kid but not with this guy but he treats her and the baby like shit. She gets close to getting the courage to do it then he does something nice and she starts at square 1 again. He is manipulative, controlling, abusive, and uses her for money/her body. What are some things I can tell her to give her the courage to break it off? I try to help but she says she still loves him even after everything he has put her through and that she can’t just change those feelings. I tell her to do it for her kid bc he needs a stable parent… Baby dad is a deadbeat and so is this guy but she isn’t emotionally stable when with him and puts the baby in a really bad position. PLEASE HELP
