I need help! I have a friend who's involved in a program at school. I am no longer in that program but i help out and attend the monthly meetings that the parents have. Their is a specific family who has done nothing but said negative things about my friend, by family i mean the parents and their kids. Its come to the point where my friend is just not healthy...emotionally, mentally and physically. This family has done nothing but talk and spread rumors. I want to confront them during one of the meetings. I want to talk about the situation in front of everyone without pointing fingers but directing it to that family. Please help and give me any other suggestions you might have.

Well,you could explain that the rumors aren't true during those meetings [make sure you've got all the facts first]
and
you could also talk about it indirectly. You won't be accusing them of anything but in a way, you're still telling everyone the truth about this and making others know that the family is just spreading rumors.
Good luck! : )
Hope you friend feels better soon. : )

Just say something like
"I've been informed of a rumor that someone has been spreading around and some of us are finding it quite selfish and blah blah blah"
Definitely make it clear who you're talking about, but don't say who, just make it incredibly obvious.
Good luck to you and your friend.

i would say nothing about your friends mental or physical health.
instead in a polite, well mannered, and cool headed fashion
advise them you have heard from many people they are
spreading false rumors about you and you would like for
it to stop.
