Question Posted Wednesday February 16 2005, 5:42 pm
My Dad's soon to be ex-wife has been harrassing us and stalking the house. Today, she told the police that I have been slandering her name at my high school. I never talk about the woman. Why would I want to talk about someone who is making my life a living hell? When I am at school, it is my relief from all the stress of home and I try to enjoy the time with my boyfriend and my best friends. I have had four of my friends come up to me and tell me that she has come to her house and said a bunch of stuff to her parents about Dad and about me. This is four different people that their parents would rather them have nothing to do with me. Do you have any advice on how I can improve my name, or at least deal with the stress of someone trying to ruin my life? (Although she says that I am ruining hers. Yeah, funny how that works out...)
Thanks!
Stressed...

And ask your dad if he can get a restraining order put against her. And if she continues to bother you threaten to sue her for harrasment. This crazy lady has no right to do this to you. Also, if she's saying bad false things about you or your dad, then you can sue her for damages from slander. Funny how you can turn that right around on her, huh? Anyway, the law is on your side, so long as you choose to use it. Wish you luck, and I hope I helped. [ klyova90's advice column | Ask klyova90 A Question ]

CraziForRey619 answered Wednesday February 16 2005, 6:16 pm: This is almost the same thing that happened to me (except their wasn't a crazy woman involved). I would just call the parents of your friends and tell them what happened. Although they may not believe you, it would show them that you care about your reputation. I would get the police to make her stay away from your house and your family. Besta Luck [ CraziForRey619's advice column | Ask CraziForRey619 A Question ]

Talk to your stepmom, yell and bitch at her all you want. [ CuTeBlOnDeXo's advice column | Ask CuTeBlOnDeXo A Question ]

I think if you know for a fact that none of these things she's saying is true, that you should have your dead talk to the police about it himself. As for clearing up your name its just like the rumor cycle. Talk to your friends parents about it and tell them whats going on, it may not be there buissness whats goin on in ur private life, but if they dont want your friends chillin wit ya ya gotta do sumtin. As for the police thing, if the police dont find anything, and after talkin to teachers or principals or whatever, they'll realize that she was lying, and she'll get in big trouble.
