Can you let a child that you think is being abused stay in your home without telling the parents?

No. If they report the child as a runaway you are committing a crime by harboring him/her. Your job if you want to help is to report the abuse, even if you just suspect it, to the police or Child Protective Service. They decide what will be done after they have investigated it. And trust me, you want them to investigate. If something is wrong they will catch it and if they miss it at least there will be a report in case something else happen so the they will be warned the next time and keep a closer look at the family.

Can a 15 year old who is being verbally and mentally abused in the state of georgia live with a friend s parent without having to return to the biological family?
The 15yo and the friends parent can not decide this by themselves. Unless your parents give permission for you to move you have to contact the Child Protective Service and tell them you are being abused. They will consider and evaluate your friends home when your friends parents let them know they are interested in becoming foster parents. The court will take parental rights from your parents. All this have to go through the legal system. During the time you are living somewhere else they regularly check up and see if it's right for you to stay where you are or not. Your parents can be trying to better themselves etc.
