astrid Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 Okay, long story short: Dd was friends with A through elementary school. A went to PS, but the two were on local softball teams together and played AG dolls a lot. They remained friends and are now both freshmen in HS, though they are not as close as they once were. A has a cousin M, whom Molly is also friends with via local music/choir programs. M is a sophomore, same high school as M and A. M and A have been locked in a bitter dispute for a year now, barely speaking, whatever. Molly doesn't really know what it's about, and it's never been any of her business, so she's just stayed friends with M and is nodding acquaintances with A, but no animosity toward either, and has never gossiped about either to the other. So suddenly on FB, A and M post a picture of them hugging and making those asinine "duck faces" (which neither Molly nor I can stand!) with the caption, "We're BACK, baby!" to which Molly replies, "Oh! Great!" sincerely meaning she's glad they've patched things up and are on friendly terms again. WELL..... Suddenly A's MOTHER, who is in her forties, posted two very nasty, personal posts under Molly's comment: One: "SOMEBODY is JEALOUS! Don't let her interfere again! That MEAN GIRL!" and then the very next comment is the mother again saying this: "Too bad Molly, BLOOD is thicker thank MEAN GIRLS who haven't any socialization skills!" Um what?! So the MOTHER is naming names (Molly's) and calling her names? PUBLICLY? In WRITING?!!! Of course, Molly is completely distraught, as she's always tried very hard to be friends with everyone and NOT act like a "mean girl." As far as she knew, she's still friends with both M and A; this whole thing came as a complete surprise to her! Dh and I are upset that an adult has crossed this line.... but we're at a loss as to what to do. Do we call her? I have a feeling that will make things worse. At what point does this become cyberbullying? Or is it now? In our minds, it would be one thing if it were kid to kid. But adult to kid? That kind of crosses a line, don't you think? Help-- this is new territory for us--- anyone BTDT? astrid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welovetoread Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 Honestly, I would call the mother and get it straightened out and shut down the facebook until that was done. Even if those messages were between 2 kids, its still bullying. Bullying should not be tolerated by anyone! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

astrid Posted April 26, 2012 Author Share Posted April 26, 2012 Well, we thought about that. But I think this mother is a bit, um, unhinged? I forgot to add that about a month a go she sent dd a PM on FB-- that weird little story that was going around...'you know that homeless man you see? he's a veteran... etc.' about picking on people. Again, was totally out of the blue, and unwarranted. AT that point I emailed her to say that gee, it seems there is some misunderstanding; if MOlly has done something to hurt A please let us know, we don't tolerate that behavior, we'd love to talk about this..... trying in a nice way to say, "um, if you've got a problem with our kid, take it up with us." We got no reply, and though we've been together at events since then, band concerts, swim meets, etc. she's take great pains to avoid us. So..... not sure that'll do any good? Wondering if it'll make it worse? But it's kind of the only plan we've got at the moment... astrid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gingerbread Mama Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 I would probably have to call and ask the mother what on earth is going on. That is just my personality. If you delete them you may not be able to keep an eye on what they may be saying about your DD. I would want to know if they were continuing to bash her online.

I would also inform that though dd likes both M and A, it is shame we shall have to cut off of relations because such types of people are a bore.

Mandylubug Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 Well, I was a victim of bullying by adults (adult myself) a couple years back. It was overwhelming and hurt to be blasted on fb so publicly. What I have learned was in conversations that I was a part of, even though I didn't "voice" my opinion directly but more so shook my head or said "yeah" that was an implication of my approval of opinion. Perhaps, the mother felt she was a part of the drama due to the acceptance of opinions, etc.. IDK, it doesn't excuse the bad behavior. I do know that fb bullying can be overwhelming and hurtful when it comes from an area in your life that you were previously confident and secure with! Hope it is resolved soon!

She didn't post on Molly's page, but on the page of a friend of Molly's, talking about Molly (and naming her by name) so we have no control over deleting any comments. They're there, unless she deletes them herself. However I did take screen shots of the page so I have it saved for future reference, if necessary. And no, I don't think confronting her would get us anywhere--- any adult who would do this is clearly going to be defensive at best and positively unhinged at worst. I'm afraid it might make things worse for Molly. astrid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trilliums Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 I think I'd put a confused emote beneath the mom's comments. Or, something along the slightly snarky lines of "I have no idea what you are talking about. I am sincerely happy for them both and have the good manners to say so." Or, your daughter could ask the other girl if she had done something to cause a problem between the two of them. Maybe originally they did have a falling out over something related to your daughter?

You can block the other girl though, or your daughter can just address it directly, as has been mentioned by several people. Someone said something like, "I'm glad they are friends again. Friends are good to have." "Mean girl" is silly coming from an adult. When you said she was calling her names, I was thinking she was saying she is a B**** or other such things. Your daughter could innocently state, "I am confused as to how it is mean to be glad people are reconciled as friends." or something.

It didn't bother my friends, who know me, but I got fed up with it and went to my privacy settings and then the "blocked people and apps" and I typed in her name exactly as it appeared and blocked her and all is glorious now as she can't see me and I don't see her. :) HALLELUJAH!

Little Nyssa Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 It seems to me that probably the girls told their mom something negative about your daughter and she is rudely reacting to that--- maybe they blamed something on her that they themselves had done. Unless this lady is like this with everyone, it seems she is going out of her way to interpret a harmless comment as a slur. She has something against her. I doubt you'll be able to uncover it, though, and at this point it wouldn't matter to me what it is. I wouldn't bother digging for it. I think it would just stir up more trouble. But that's just my 2 cents. 1. Post the friendly message that PPs recommended. 2. Tell DD that it is that lady's problem, not hers, and that she will meet a lot of people in life who want to misinterpret, according to their own set of blinkers, and that the sooner you learn to let it roll off your back, the better. 3. I would let DD keep being friends with them, if it goes no farther. 4. Here's something I learned here: you don't have to have the last word in every conversation, in order to be heard. Don't let DD follow that conversation with comment after comment. Can you tell that I am trying to learn these things myself? Just today I met some Australians, and that reminded me of an Australian girl who was obnoxious to me 7 years ago and I got all mad inside again about it! Tell me to let it go already!!!

I'm happy to see A and M hanging out again." The mom will either back peddle/apologize OR launch into a weird rant. You'll know from her response if she's just not quite bright or if she really is full-out crazy mean.

4ofus Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 I THINK Molly could delete her own comment on the friends page/picture. The Mom's comments would remain, but the original comment would be gone. I think I'd do this, then block mom as pp's mentioned. Then slowly detach myself from this entire friend triangle. Gentle, but firm, extraction. If the mom is fired up, the girls are likely feeding her something to fuel the fire. Molly can't win here. She just needs to safely exit.

Just go to the mom's page and BLOCK her. Tell your daughter to take a big step back from all of this. There is only heartbreak down this road. That isn't an easy thing to do in High School, I get that. But if you don't want this to get worse, your dd needs to take a step back from those girls. If the mother is truly unhinged she will keep stirring the pot and make it bad for everyone around her. Negative people need more negativity to keep fueling their fire - don't let your dd get caught up in that family's drama. Just my opinion.

Great!" -- which may have been misinterpreted by the unstable, mentally deranged, and smothering mother? ;) I do believe the mother's FB comments if left on that girl's page will show the entire world what a nitwit she is. And to me, it appears that girl A was talking smack about the OP's dd all along? Weird. So sorry to hear this happened. :grouphug: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parrothead Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 It sounds like someone in the relationship has told the mom that your DD is responsible for their break up. So, that someone isn't really DD's friend. I'd avoid the whole mess of them, de-friend both girls and stay far away. Whatever kind of crazy is going on, your DD doesn't need to be sucked any farther into it. Let them say what they want, gossip to their heart's content and just don't view it. :grouphug: :iagree: Alternately if Molly really wants to keep the friendship, get the girl that Molly is good friends with and her mom over for a discussion about what is going on. Don't engage crazy mom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
