And I hope not one you'll ever experience again.

This place seems to be much more than a singles site for many people, something I'm just realising.

I hope everything works out well.

It really is Jan. I don't have any friends in this town other than one neighbor. And since I don't work, these people are a lot like the friends I used to have at the office.

This place is a great support network for those of us that occasionally need it.


And thank you. I hope we don't have to go through this again either. My daughter is still a little shaken up, though the boys are calming her down.

That's it exactly. Also, I wouldn't have known anyone to call that could have given me all the good advise I received within a matter of minutes here.

I posted the thread. The cops arrived. And when I came back in, there was a page full of posts waiting for me.



And Slim, thank you very much.

sorry am late ..

you ok dana ??

Omg some ppl, hope u and your family are ok dcj

We're okay, thank you, Karen. I don't believe we've yet met, though I've seen you on the threads. I'm Dana. Nice to meet you!

And I'm Magically Delicious

Coo coo for cocoa puffs!

A .40 cal works well..

Dana,

I'm so glad you, Em and the boys are OK. It's a crazy world out there and you have every right to defend your children and yourself. I would suggest not to think about it as being violent, it's more of holding her accountable for her actions ( even if it takes physical action)!

Do go and get checked out to make sure your back didn't sustain more injuries. It's not really about the evidence that you can take to court (even though it will look better) it's more about taking care of yourself so you can take care of those kids.

I hope she leaves you alone now. However if she is into drugs real bad she may find ways of making your life and Em's life hell. You may want to look into getting a restraining order to start with in case this escalates further. Then you may down the road be able to have the stalking charges come into play. It's just a suggestion for you my friend. And yes every time from here on that she messes with Em or Brandon or even you or your property I would call the police and push it.

Love ya honey!

Marrie

Thank you Marrie. I had thought if she says anything or does anything again, I'll look into a restraining order. I'll have to have the evidence to do it though, which means calling the police every time she does something and filing a report.

Thank you for your thoughts and advise. You all have been so wonderful to me today and really helped me a lot.

Love ya too Marrie!!

That's what I always love about you Pat. Direct and to the point.

The Medical Advice mentioned here is Medical information only, and you definitely need to consult that with your doctor.


Dana,

I was shocked when I have read this forum, and I am sure you are shocked about what it happened too. You did the right thing that you have posted this immediately, and I hope that your neck and back feel better. Hope your children are on bed sleeping too. I think you need to rest and drink lots of water especially drinking lots of water should be your habit because of what you mentioned about your vertebra earlier. Doctors constantly advice that drinking lots of water is the cure for most problems, remember 75% of our mussels contained water so to create more mussels in the vertebra area you need to drink more water, keep that on mind.

If you have pain, on any part of your body after this incident, use Ice, put the ice in the plastic bag and put it on the pain points, if persists take painkillers. I hope that is not serious. Just calm down, be relaxed, and rest.

And,

Thanks folks for all legal advice.

check your state laws, and dont even go by what anyone says unless it is the department itself. I know here in Oregon that a "restraining order" can NOT be issued unless it is a person of relation and/or you had sexual contact with in x amount of time. (cant remember the amount) however there is a anti stalking law,,,not sure about that,,,anyway as you know in the USA from state to state it varies in great degrees...even the sargent in the cty I was living in gave me false information as he himself did not know the correct procedure.
I pray you and your children heal and have no more contact with this person.
All my best
be safe

;-}

Dana, I haven't read the whole thing but know you're getting support. I just had to log on to tell you I'm sorry this happened. Think pressing charges is the right way to go, she needs help.

I hope you and your daughter recovery quickly from this emotional/physical trainwreck.

Hello Barry

Is recoverying going well for you?

Keytone, thanks for that I agree with you.

Terrible to think that this is your neighbour's child whose done this ..... but unfortunately when people get into drugs etc. it can totally alter their behaviour and increase their outbursts of anger and rage. They are not themselves - but there are still consequences to face because of their actions.

I encourage you to follow through and lay charges and also please please take care of yourself (medically and counseling if necessary for yourself and your daughter). This is very traumatic what you've been through and sometimes it helps to talk it through with a professional.

Nice to meet u too Dana ty

call me Kez........

Keep it simple.. It has usually worked for me..
