If it were writing given to me, I'd ask the writer to sit down and tell me the story, and work through its content. If, indeed, it were about an abusive situation, I might ask the writer if she is aware of resources in the community that would be helpful, if she feels that the woman in the story is safe, etc. etc. Finally, at some point, I'd walk through the grammar issues with her and develop exercises, etc, around all of that.
