From their website, a quote:
Fifteen years ago today, the National Domestic Violence Hotline received its first call for help from a father seeking help for his daughter who was in an abusive relationship. Advocates answer the phone lines at The Hotline 24 hours a day, seven days a week...
Their very first call for help at the hotline was from a PARENT wanting to help a daughter in an abusive situation, asking for help what to do.
