I live in PA. My daughter is having problems with a 35 year old mother saying negative things about her. This has been going on for about 2 years. It started as an attitude kind of thing then progressed on to this woman approaching our daughter and saying something to her. At that point my husband and I contacted her and demanded that she cease. Things seemed to quiet down for awhile until recently.
Both of our daughters are in an activity together that requires a lot of time spent together although they are not friends. For some reason over the last month or so it has been brought to our attention that the following has been going on.
1. Talking about my daughter to others that come to their home: calling her fat etc.
2. Calling other parents to let them know their children should not be around mine because she is not a good girl.
3. Telling others that my daughter sucks at her activity and claiming that "see how much better my daughter is".
4. Pulled up in front of our home when my daughter had friends over so that she could make a point of saying hello to all but my daughter.
I understand that I can not control what is said in their home, however this isn't a case of a 13 year old girl fight. This is an adult doing this and it seems to be escalating, she had not been to our home for 2 years and then waited until I ran to the store to pull up out front. I know that this woman suffers from anxiety issues and has lost a job because of it, but how much more of this behavior should we tolerate? What are my options as a parent?
