I really need to talk and get some advice regarding my 16 year old daughter. She has this boyfriend (same age) they have been together for 13 months, but he is very controlling of her. He has slept with about 20 other girls whilst in a relationship with her, gave her an STI, won't let her wear make up, calls her names all the time, isn't allowed to go out with any of her friends, isn't allowed to wear anything that shows her bum off or any skin (even in the summer) constantly accuses her of cheating, the list goes on an on, I found out yesterday he has slapped her round the face and she has also ended up in hospital as she tried to kill herself!! yet she begs for him to be with her all the time, if she does leave him it only lasts for a day as he constantly rings her or messages her on facebook telling her he loves her etc! I have talked to her until I am blue in the face so has her dad. I have tried banning her from seeing him...she sneaks behind my back and does it. I have told him he isnt welcome in or near my house ever again. I really am so worried that she will take her life, she has gone from a bubbly popular girl to a girl that never goes out unless its to him, never smiles and lies to me all the time. I cry at night because I know this boy has ruined her already and that i'm supposed to protect her but I feel like i am failing. I was hoping that eventually she will open her eyes and realise he will never change but 13 months later she is no nearer to doing that I really do not know how to help my daughter :(
