Jo,

These kids are bullies, you are an awesome person. I try to ignore any comments made like this, however when it starts to cause you to be intimidated something needs to be done.

Sometimes I have just went up to the bullies and talked to them. If they see I am not bothered by their BS, then it make take away their so called fun. This may work if they are just bratty teens.
If you are really scared of them and think they are thugs then get the law involved. Can the Police help? Are there laws against harassment?

My prank phone calls stopped when I made a threat back, "If you call here again I will involve the FBI!" (2 weeks gone by and no phone calls"

I don't know about telling your H, in my sit. I told XW about the prank phone calls and what I was going to do. If someone is bullying my kids or XW I would want to involve the law. I would tell him if he would be supportive to you and help with telling the police. If he is calm and avoids confrontation with people have him come along at a distance so he can witness what they are doing. This wouldn't work for me, I may end up taking them all on so be careful.

Jo, most of all remember they are no where near the person you are. You are helping others with their pain and these low lifes are trying to make life miserable for you or anyone else they think they can intimidate.

You are a wonderful lady don't let them get you down.
