@OpenComputeDesign No, and it is quite heavy on me needing context. What happened? Parent fuckup, or did you manage to actually do something that modifies the world around?

@admitsWrongIfProven I don't know exactly why she ran away now. 7 months before her 18th birthday.

I know she wanted to move out, I was even trying to help her get ready. But I thought she'd move out normally, when she turned 18.

Instead she's in foster care, and my parents are spending tens of thousands of dollars on lawyers. Because while they were, my dad especially, kinda crappy parents some times, I don't believe the accusations she's made against them.

And because I was, or at least I thought I was, her confidant, I'm stuck in a really crappy place.

@OpenComputeDesign If she did this, there are two possibilities. She might be insane and doing damage by lashing out, without reason.
Or there might be a reason that is not easily understood.

Dude, just be there for her. I don't think someone that cared for you would rampage and destroy...

@admitsWrongIfProven I mean, my family has a bit of a history on both sides of just not handling things well.

I would be there for her if I could. But I can't talk to her yet. I am, at this stage, considered a witness for my parents. It breaks my heart.

@OpenComputeDesign Who would consider you a witness? It sounds a bit like a court hearing, is there legal action?
