I’m glad you made that offer to your neighbor, many others wouldn’t, and you never know, she may still take you up on that offer.

We are the “eyes on the street” in our neighborhoods. I once heard a neighbor arguing with her husband in their driveway and saw him forcefully push her. The next day when I saw her out in the yard I went to her and told her I saw. Then I said if she ever needed help she could come to our house. So far she has not seen the need.
We are witnesses. Sometimes it may seem awkward to approach the subject of possible domestic violence/abuse. One’s silence might leave someone alone in a bad situation.
