Sorry to hear your friend is going through such a tough time and, of course, that her son is likely also experiencing the tumult of this family situation. It sounds like she has paranoid delusions and is putting herself and her son in potential danger. You could try approaching her about getting some counseling for her son. If you have the availability you could even offer to take him to weekly appointments. Of course, it would be best to relate the need for counseling to the difficulties the family has been through and not to her mental health issues. If her son receives counseling, a social worker will be involved, and we can usually quickly tell when all is not well within a family.
