That's so sick for someone to do that to her. This is most definatly NOT her friend..and it seems as if that girls mother is about as mature as her daughter is. My parents would ground me for monthes if i ever did that to anyone. *sigh* Good luck  |

First,of all she cannot press charges on you ,just because you got upset and defend you' re daughter ."Profanity",will not be noticed.Threatning e-mails do.You,can press charges on her reasoning .I can't remember the words to use lets see. Let me get back to you on that one.But,you do have a case .  |

OMG, some friend that is.. I would have probably pressed charges, just to teach the girl a valid and valueable lesson. I think out of all of it, her mother takes the cake.. What kinda parent is SHE to threaten you like that after her daughter did something like that. No wonder this girl thinks that doing things like that are funny.. She probably learned it from her mother.. *shakes head* Disturbing.. Im sorry though, that you and your daughter has to go through that, but at least it wasnt a real stalker.. *hugs* Love, Amanda  |

Geez, wow what a "friend"....I would press charges over the emotional/mental stress that it has caused your family. I mean that was ust plain sick to begin with. Friends don't do that. The school should be informed as well as the police. So what you used profanity it's understandable since you were being threated.  |

Diana is right.. Her mother has no case against you, because her daughter was the culprit in malaciously causing havoc to you and your daughter-Anonimously. You had no way of knowing how old this person was, therefore her case would be thrown out, because you were just defending yourself. *hugs* |

Thank you! I thought maybe I was over reacting a little, so i'm glad to see others feel the same as I do. I can't stand the girl to begin with and have limited as much contact between her and my daughter as I could, without banning a friendship completly. I've been hoping my daughter would see for herself that this girl is nothing but trouble, despite her "gifted talented" status.  |

OMG! I would press charges, and the mother can try to press charges, but there is no way you would have known you were talking to a child for one, and the police and everyone would realize that. That is just really messed up. I would take it to the school like you said, and let them handle it as well. What made this girl think this was funny? I hope everything works out. God Bless  |

BTW, you have the other two e-mails? That should be enough, I don't think you can retrieve the first e-mail if you emptied the delete bin. However the other two e-mails should be sufficient enough, that and the fact that the girl confessed to her crime. If you do take steps and press charges, this will show other kids, that threats are taken very seriously, and hopefully prevent it from happening to someone else. God Bless |

her mother should be more worried about what the school or whoever is going to do to her daughter more than you using profanity in the email you sent back to her...I'd knock my kid out if she pulled a prank like that on someone  |

Another issue at hand....the school should be notified and AWARE of the misuse of school property and time. All the way around, this is a difficult situation that should be addressed.  |

I do have two of the e-mails printed out. Just got off the phone with the school, the principal is suppose to call me back..I have the feeling nothing will be done. Guess that is just the way public schools are. A fact that is taking some getting use to. This is our first time dealing with a public school system, so far I'm not impressed. We'll see though. |

Oh,ummmm..it's "terroristic threats", not"terrorist threats".If,the school,did not respond with you're complaint .You,can take it up to,the schoold board of education.There,you make it appoint how internet mis-use is not being handled properly.Then,if they don't respond ,you can take it up to school funding administration.They,will do something about it i assure you.Then,if still did not work you can take it to higher source where the school fund is coming from and so on and so on...You,will get answers,as long .An,old saying "Squeaky wheel gets the oil" so keep you're chin up and you will get you're answers yet.Trust me ,they don't want you to get that far  . |

I agree with Diana. Also, public schools suck.. My son is in one and when something happened at school, I couldn't get them to do anything, My son was hurt by a kid on the bus. Well, I called the school, they basically didn't want to hear it and told me to file a police report. (this was the first time these kids had done something) So I called a Sheriff out to my home, he told me that there was nothing he could do, because it was up to the school police.. and that the school is responsible for every child til they get to their front door. The school claimed to not know that. lol It happened on school property, there for the school is responsible. Head for the school board if nothing is done, they may just expell the girl and do nothing more about it. God Bless |

I just talked to the principal. She just couldn't believe it! She kept asking if the girls parents owned the "flooring store" (whatever that may be), and kept saying what good people they are. She said I should talk to the parents. I said I didn't want to, it was done during school time on school equipment, so the school should deal with it...but, but, the parents are such good people she said!!! Although she admitted she doesn't know the girl nor most of the rest of the students. This is the 8th grade principal we are talking about. Each grade has its own principal. In the end she said she would call the girl to the office and talk to her and call her mother. |

Kelly, that's horrible! I don't blame you a bit. I bring it to the school's attention, as well. It might not even be a bad idea for you to press charges. That girl may just be thirteen but she's plenty old enough to know that actions carry consequences. She should be prepared to face them.  |

If you get no satisfaction from the principal, contact the school superintendant and really, the police should be involved. It is strill a threatening letter and that is against the law. Just because the parents might appear respectable, doesn't mean they are as their reaction to this. |

Turns out, it wasn't the Principal that I was dealing with!!! Nevermind that every time I called, I asked to speak to the principal. Guess I should learn the principals name, huh? Anyway, the girl got 2 weeks lunch time detention which equals about 10 minutes per day. She was not banned from the computer lab or from using the internet. Her punishment wasn't harsh because of the e-mail I had sent her. When I pointed out to the lady that I did not know I was sending an e-mail to a 13 year old working off a school computer, she sputtered and said she hadn't realized that (guess she forgot I'd told her in the beginning I sent a profanity laced e-mail to what I thought was a male stalker type person), but it was to late, the punishment had already been handed out. I hung up the phone, looked at my daughter and said, she's blonde isn't she?? My daughter laughed and said, yeah. Hope I didn't offend any blondes, both my daughters are blonde!! Anyway, I'm writing the school board, but I realize this will probably not do any good. |
