Amanda Bynes -- Friends Are Furious Her Family Isn't Helping Her

It's called "tough love" for a reason. And you can't force someone to get help they don't want. Unless she's a danger to herself or others, you kind of just have to wait it out and hope for the best.

Amanda's a big girl now. Though she's not acting like one, she can cut communication off from whoever she likes. Let's hope she eventually pulls her head out of her ass.

Like I said before, they are lousy, no good self-centered parents!

her friends are "furious" and "fuming mad".. oooooooh, well then friends, just stomp your lil feet and get all mad. she has to want help.

hahaha You can't force a person to get help. (the courts can) If she's not willing to except or face the facts of her actions she will need to fall all the way to the bottom. retired celebrity or not. friends everywhere should know that.

TMZ's campaign to destroy this woman's reputation is cruel ... and transparent. I'll bet her lawyers are licking their lips as they contemplate strategy.

Are you surprised? How do you think Amanda got that way. Her parents are probably just like the Lohans. What kind of parent let's there kid fall and do nothing about it.

Great friends dont step in themselves, no they run to tmz to whine like b*tches

It's harder to "help" some people.

Amanda's friends aren't furious about anything, they're happily cashing TMZ's checks.

She needs to help herself!

If her "friends" are so passionate about it, let them help her. There may be a very good reason why her family isn't in the middle of this mess.

This is real simple. She is either desparately trying to stay relevant by going the TMZ route of celebrity or she has serious mental health issues. If her "FRIENDS" are that concerned, kidnap her and take her to a hospital for a 5150 hold. Seriously. Its either all by design or she needs help.

When someone is an adult it is HARDER then you think to get that person help.

Been there. Done that. Got the t-shirt. Only with my mom. Had to wait, literally, until the state took her into custody (yes, she was that stubborn); and, then, we had to get a conservatorship over her ($14.000 hit in legal fees to the family purse - and that's when the lawyers were friendly to us and each other). It's a tough road to travel; but, you have to do it.
