A member asked:
Is there a way to help my mom come to terms with abuse in the family?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Be supportive: If there is abuse going on in the family now, it's important to get some help imediately. If the abuse was in the past, it can be very helpful to get some counseling with a therapist, psychologist, minister, or other professional.
