I had my number changed but he cant because its also a business phone. they are mad at me . i refuse to do the "he said, she said " drama with them anymore. Look at my previous question about them for more info. I hate to have them arrested but 8 days of being called and harrassed is enough and they have even been to his work twice.

You need to tell your sister and mother that you don't need any help destroying the best thing that ever happened into your life, (your husband) , and they need to get out of your business. Let them know that their opinions are not welcome and to get on down the road. The Bible says to depart from your mother and father when you get married. Your new family is you and your spouse. It also says let no one get between a man and his wife. Stand your ground and be as solid as a rock in your marriage. Good luck!!!!!

They don't need to be arrested but reporting them for phone harassment will only get them a convo w/ the local police and a warning. People don't get held in a cell or put in the back of a squad car for phone harassment (unless they're threatening someones life). If you can't put your foot down w/ just words, that's when you know you need a higher level of power to help and there's nothing wrong with that. Going to his work is too far, I would mention that as well when you make a phone report. A restraining order is too much at this point and blocking their number isn't really communicating anything to them (the won't get the point that what they're doing is wrong).

Most telephone providers have a service called selective call blocking. You can block the numbers they are calling from. Or you can contact your phone company and tell them you are getting harrassing phone calls and they will tell you the procedure they use. If that doesn't work you can always file harrassing communications charges against them. They will probably just have to pay a fine and not serve jail time. .

Well it sounds like you have 'tried' to handle this situation, but it has come time for the big guns! Call you mom and tell her lovingly - but FIRMLY - if this continues, you ARE calling the police. Tell her that this is the ONLY warning she will get - period! Stay firm and if she 'goes berserk' on the phone - hang up - if she is dumb enough to call you back, say "I told you that I was calling the police, they should be there shortly" and then hang up. You need to get her attention the hard way right now. Don't let it be empty threats - actually call them if needed. If I were your husband, I would have had them arrested when they arrived at my work. He must really love you to have controlled himself.

They aren't respecting you or your husband. If changing number didn't help get a restraining order against them. I know that is hard cause they are family but tough love is needed. If they violate that order they will go to jail and maybe that is the wake up call they need. You have a right to be happy and not haressed.

Your husband needs to talk to his mother and tell he to stop bad mouthing you since you are his wife and all, it is his place to do this I wouldn't be meeting her for lunch or anything because that could be even worse, If he stayed on the phone for 30 min. while she dissed you he has a problem he should hang up each time she starts doing this and maybe she will get the message. The judge will get tired of her denying visitation for your husband and seeing them in court each time she is actually in contempt of court, It is all in your man's hands, talk to his mother and not encourage his ex to bad mouth which he is doing by the way if he stays on the phone for 30 min. letting this happen. good luck

Family should be extended the courtesy expected up until the time the member no longer extends that courtesy to you. I would make a firm warning one time and then call and report the harassment. If you do not then be ready to have this go on for a long time.

File harrassment charges against them. 8 days of this is more than enough.
