I’ll try and be brief...
Short version
14 y/o daughter and friend don’t get along, anymore, beef goes to Snapchat, mother of friend calls the school, school wants us to meet, friends mother shows up late, causes a scene and calls my daughter a whore, says she’s dated half of the basketball team and she’s a white devil - all in front of my daughter. End of scene as she’s escorted into another room to meet with the principal and were told the meeting is over and someone will call us.
What the hell man? Should I take some form of preventive legal action or something to document this aggressive behavior? I’d love to just ignore this girl and her family going forward but I doubt they have the ability to do so.
long version
My daughter and another girl have always had an on and off friendship what which has gotten more contentious as of late.
So long story short (too late)
Friend slips out on voluntary basketball practice and doesn’t invite my daughter because she says she was worried my daughter would snitch.
My daughter gets butthurt about this because she wouldn’t have snitched and tells friend not to bother being her friend anymore.
Friend takes to Snapchat and posts the text conversation showing everyone “how lame” my daughter is. This continues for several days.
My daughter ignores it for a few days but all her fiends are talking about it and she posts her own picture of the friend with the subtext calling the friend a ##### -which is obviously stupid.
Then the friends “Sister” (who is this girls legal guardian and an adult) calls my daughter directly to confront her. My daughter hangs up and blocks her. Then the sends a text to my wife’s phone. This is on THANKSGIVING evening around 8pm -so we’re drunk and not going to respond.
The following day we get an email from the school saying that because they’re on the basketball team together they we should all meet before they practice together.
This isn’t a school matter but we agree because we would like a resolution.
Wife and I both take off of work early today for the meeting. We arrive early to find out that the friends mother has already been to the school in the morning they no show for the first 15 minutes and then barge into the room while we are explaining the facts as we know them. The friends mother interrupts a few times before we get things settled down. I start off explaining that under no circumstances is any adult to contact my daughter directly and that’s when the friends mother goes into a rage playing the victim and proceeds to call my daughter a slut and a white devil. She is escorted out of the room where she continues expletives and calling my daughter names- laid enough so that our other daughter and dozens of other kids overhear her.
We wait for awhile before being told that we should just go and someone will contact us tomorrow.
So what’s the recourse here is any? IMO the woman dug her own grave all by herself and we shouldn’t have to do much but I’m doing my due diligence by sharing my story her both for your entertainment and more importantly, advice on how to proceed.
I should add that this a private school and our children have been there paying full tuition for 4 years.
Wife and I are going to send an email to school explaining that we will be there tomorrow morning to meet with the principal.
Any advice other than that? Are folks really allowed to verbally abuse my daughter like that with no recourse? Are there any legal preventative/measures I should take?
