cha_yeah answered Wednesday October 5 2005, 11:19 pm: my advice is to confront this kid because obviously hes doing it for a reason (unless hes an idiot... which could be the case also...) confront him and think of something that could have made him mad or something. . . dont fight back, it will just get worse. confront it with a positive attitude. approach, trying to get a solution

tasuki answered Tuesday October 4 2005, 7:59 pm: Well, he is harassing you. If you tell your parents that he is doing that, they won't ground you. You are the victim. Tell your parents, and say that you think the police should be notified (they SHOULD! This is against the law!) You will only be in trouble if you keep secrets. If you tell your parents that someone is harming you, they will want to defend you. [ tasuki's advice column | Ask tasuki A Question ]
soccer_crazii answered Tuesday October 4 2005, 7:27 pm: he should not be doing that. maybe learn how to block a phone number, or like if you need a new phone, change your number. I agree with sbloemeke, its a pretty good idea. But it may not also be good because if you parents would freak out on you for hearing him say that, i dont know how they would react to take him to court...maybe tell them whats going on, and then do sbloemekes idea. Dont keep this a secret from them [ soccer_crazii's advice column | Ask soccer_crazii A Question ]
GDROB answered Tuesday October 4 2005, 6:57 pm: Get call screen added to your phone and a callscreen box if your phone does not have visual display. Make a log of each time the person calls and what was said. Your parents can have him or charged with harassment regardless of his ass especially if the call is loaded with swearing or anything filthy or suggestive or violent.
If he calls at all hours including ones reserved for slumber he can be charged quite easily. The easiest thing to do though is callscreen, get the number and block it on your blocked caller's list. And how will you get grounded over this? Comeon, he's the one doing the calling and not you. You cannot control it. [ GDROB's advice column | Ask GDROB A Question ]
sbloemeke answered Tuesday October 4 2005, 6:57 pm: Have a tape recorder, and call him. Tell him to stop calling you, and record it. Tell him you'll press charges of harrassment if he doesn't. Then if he does call you, record it. That's enough to take him to court. [ sbloemeke's advice column | Ask sbloemeke A Question ]
xomegaroni answered Tuesday October 4 2005, 6:49 pm: i wouldn't threaten him about it, juss because he might do it out've spite. i'd tell your parents that some random caller has your number & that he curses & what not. that way they can get the # blocked, plus if you tell them ahead of time you won't get into trouble. maybe there's a way with your phone company er w/e it is, that you can block his # w/out your parents knowing. the best thing to do would be talk to them first.
