I don't mean to be a cold blooded jerk, but you should not get involved with this woman in any way other than bussiness. Any chik that keeps herself and her child in that type of environment is just plain and simple an emotional basket case. You can lead a horse to water but you can't make it drink...if you know what I mean.
x2, I would bet money she has daddy issues. Low self esteem and a lack of faith in men have made her believe she is in some way deserving of this and this is often why women in these situations hang around.
She is probably a great girl, sad thing is she needs to start believing that.
You have your work cut out for you man on this one

It is tough to do. Hopefully one day she will get help and be ready for a real relationship and then move on in

weather a brother or a boy friend.. stay away emotionally. Or you will be as sick as her. She is damaged goods now. Trust me (experiance) she will never be "normal". This will haunt her the rest of her life unfortunatly. Plus the fact she let abuse happen in the first place. Normal people don't put up with that. It is admirable for you to help and get her out of the situation. But emotional attraction will not help you in any way. In a few years she WILL be with an abuser. If your a nice guy, she won't respect you because you DON'T abuse. It is weird.. but that is usually how it works.
