What can we do?

Question

i'm 16 years old and my brother is 14 i couldnt sleep becuz i have this question thats bothering me - my biological dad's girlfriend (i call him that becuz i havent seen him in over a year) always writes his emails for him. He never contacts us. then yesterday becuz she has been bothering my mom, my mom told her not to contact her anymore and my bio dad's girlfriend responded with a really nasty email that she sent to me and my brother too. in it she called my mom a liar, a cheater, selfish, coldhearted (you get the drift), and then she called her a "b" word (dont want to cuss). Can I do anything as a kid since she sent this to me and my brother? She told me i was like mom and would lead a miserable life like mom does but my mom smiles more now than i have ever seen her. can someone help me and my brother and tell us what we need to do? thank you for reading this and stuff maybe i can go to sleep now!

oh and she said if i were her kid she would whip me.

Answer 1

This is called harassment. Harassment, legally, is any form of unwanted contact. Talk to your mother about it and persue a restraining order. You will need to see a lawyer, and you may need to see a judge. With the e-mails as evidence, in addition to the calls she has made to your mother, you should be able to easily get a restraining order. That means she will not be allowed to contact you again. And, if she does, she'll go to jail.

Answer 2

I hope you showed the email to your mother!!!! Some women just don't have any class. The obvious thing is that she feels threatned by your family. As you are 16 I am sure you lay a charge of harrassment and defamation against her. I would even go so far as to report her to Child Services as she made an indirect threat towards you. Other than that I would suggest that if you see an email from her - don't open it and don't respond to it - just move it to a new folder and keep it so that if you do decide to go the legal route, you will have proof of her actions.

This things happen you just need to understand that some people feel superior if they use bad language and they put others down. I look at at as they are afraid of what they are not or can't understand. You sound like a nice person. Pray for Gods guidance and forgiveness you'll find thats probably what your mother did.

Answer 4

First, save the email, and print off a copy. second, your mom would know what needs to be done if anything, third, stop responding to her emails. period. If you want contact with your father, send an email that sayss you and your brother will only speak to your father, and nobody else. If he wants to talk to you, he can either pick up the phone or email you himself.

Answer 5

The best thing you can do is give it to your mother and let her take the appropriate steps to handle it. I'm so sorry an adult has the nerve to talk to you like that. She needs to grow up! GOOD LUCK!

Answer 6

i would say something but be polite enough to respect your father i would stand up for myself and for my mother... and i would OF COURSE point out how imature it is to pick a fight with someones family if she is really serious about ur dad... who is the more mature one his girlfriend or his daughter... and then she will have to live with you if her and your dad do have a serious realtionship... my question is why is your dad with someone who is so disrespectful to his children???

Answer 7

It's best to just stay out of it.

Answer 8

Answer 9
