Drama over nothing.

Ds is 16 he broke up with his boyfriend who's 17. He had been staying over alot at my place he had his passport abd birth certificate here . Ds was refusing to give it back out of angry etc. Ds was not understanding that it's against the law to do that. Also I was getting threats of the older brother coming to the door . Ds had no right to keep his documents anyway. So to save all the drama vetch I arranged for his ex to get his documents.

Could not find the birth certificate. I don't know if its been lost within the bedroom or if the ex lost it himself. The mum wants me to replace the birth certificate I have said no. Partly because I feel its not my responsibility. But also ds phone that he lent his ex came back smashed. It was a spare not overly important cost 25.00 for new screen . So told ds just cut your loses. If you both feel that angry just go your separate ways .

The mum started threatening ds saying nasty things to ds. I'm not sure what things were said . Ds showed ne a message that said she was sending police to my door . I told ds that's fine. Don't worry about it and don't react.

But then my adult dd then starts messaging the mum. Slagging her off. It's really pissed me of as dd has to make drama over everything. When there does not Need to be... separately I'm wondering is an over the top reaction connected to personality disorder. Dd has boarder libe personality disorder but I don't fully understand it.

So in a nut shell I'm saying . Birth certificate is not my problem , order a new one. I don't care if you send police to my house, no Need for drama the 16 and 17 year old leave each other alone .

You all sound like children bickering - ridiculous

Your issue is your children want drama hence all the messaging from their side. Your approach is right but your children don't seem to agree.

To be fair everything was quite nothing had bedn said then the mother messaged my ds and started having a go at him and slagging him of although wrong I would partly understand if he said something back to her because he's only 16 and 16 year old can be a bit silly . But I fo agree with you as well .

But my dd who's mid 20s did not need to say anything at all. She seems to dramatise everything she has bpd im not sure if that's why she does what she does . I might look it up.

I should imagine it will just pass to be honest. I don't think its even a police matter I doubt they will turn up. Really don't want random turning up at my door though. But yeah I was just having a bit of a moan really
