Facebook rant

I know this is hindsight now... but by chance did you take any screen shots of the threats? if lets say your tires are slashed next week.. you will have an idea of who did it but with the screen shots you can take it to the police.

I couldn't take a screen shot but I printed off everything I could find.

So now call the police and file a report, and show them the printouts. They may not do anything more than file the report, but you want it on record if any of those creeps decide to follow through. I speak from experience, when my daughter was 16 she got mad at her brothes gf and sent an ugly message, the girls mom called the cops, who came knocking on our door. Too bad for the mom that my daughter knew all of the cops in our town, and worked alcohol and tobacco stings with them, so the officers were laughing the whole time they were on our doorstep.

I have been talking to a lawyer (or almost lawyer?) friend of mine who has been giving me advice on the best way to go about dealing with the issue. Mostly all I have are some empty threats and angry words by a couple of teenagers. I legally can't lay a hand on one of them and the other likes to talk big without following through. But we will be speaking to a cop or judge soon I think. My mother and I have been discussing exactly what type of report to file and how to go about it.

I'm so sorry you have to deal with this. Ugh. I hope with time it blows over and gets better. If they are treating you so awful for liking a comment, what are they doing to the person who made the comment? Maybe you should get ahold of the commenter and go to the cops together, just in case there is any more harassment down the line. Also, before stressing too much about her spreading bad things on FB, remember that you have friends here and friends in the real world, and no matter what BS that girl wants to make up, it never replaces or hides the real you that people see face to face. People's experience of you will always trump what some nutter on FB is ranting about.

My uncle went thru something similar with his DIL, and in the end it came back from several sources that even her friends reading her rants knew that she had gone off her meds and didn't hold anything against him.

And as for the not having baby thing, I think us who have problems concieving/carrying/gestating sometimes take children alot more seriously than those who have no problems. It just means we give back to the world in other ways- like taking care of the people already here in this world. Sometimes God opens your heart by closing a womb.

Cut them out like the dirty tumor they are.

For what it’s worth, I have ran into some idiotic people in the past and cut them out of my life. I am sure they still run around and spread lies about me and my husband. Is it really worth your time to worry about this? How can you even stop this from happening? To me, if somebody listens to this persons filthy mouth, maybe they aren’t worth spending time with anyways. I have cut out everybody that was friends with this pathetic friend of mine at the time, and everybody that –despite knowing her being a pathological liar- still lent her an ear and even considered what she said to be true. Made life so much easier and simpler. Spend your hours with the people that love you and know who you are, people that will defend your honor and not tolerate anybody bad mouthing you. Everything else is out of your control.

Thats horrible saying something like that!

I did have one experience with a mean person on facebook, and I unfriended her, without any comments as to why. She knows why. I won't be drawn into any of that ridiculous bologna!

Good for you! Remember the saying...sticks and stones.....Don't engage them in any conversations what-so-ever because that's what gives them their thrill.....CYBER BULLIES!

So sorry you had to be subjected to those ignorant, thoughtless poop heads!
