    Take your good friend out for coffee and tell her. Let her get over the shock, denial, etc., discuss how she can approach this if she wants to discuss that. Emphasize your daughter wants to be kept out of it!

    Or . . . if the girls are at the same school, can your daughter speak to a school counselor about it?

    I think Freedom's idea is a good one, bring along some printouts from FB to support what you are saying. She may be upset that you - or anyone - is "butting in," but tell her you are just concerned, want the best for her daughter, and by posting this stuff on Facebook, her daughter is making it the whole world's business - and even future potential employer's business as well.

    Thanks everyone, she is not a minor she is around 25 now. She has been in some trouble before that her mom knows of...she got a DUI before and she friended my daughter under a new facebook name that is not her own.

    My daughter got suspiscious and did some snooping to find her on an escort site, basically she is a prostitute, I couldn't sleep well last night I have known this girl since she is 3. My daughter has been commenting to me on her makeup, hair, clothes but I figure she dresses like one but didn't think she really was doing that. I really feel sickened.

    I know her daughters other friend years ago called her mom to tell her she was drinking too much at college so who knows maybe someone has told her this too she just seems like a lost sole to me.

    I personally think that you should talk to your friend about her daughter. You hear on the news all the time, of these "escorts" taking up with a bad "date", and ending up dead. At least if you speak up, your conscience will be clear. It probably won't change this girl's ways one way or the other, but you can rest easier knowing that at least you didn't turn your head and pretend that you didn't know anything about it.

    I think it would ruin our friendship would it be tacky to send something anonymously so she wouldn't have the embarrasement of knowing that I know? I thought I could write something like I am sending this to help your daughter so that you may keep her from danger.

    But would she believe an anonymous tip? She just might think someone is trying to start trouble, and disregard it. At least if it came from you, she would know it's not a phony story. I think I would have to risk the friendship for the sake of the girl's safety. Your friend might be angry with you in the beginning, but she'll probably thank you for it later.
