Hi, my son is due to start again at school this term after being off for half a term while we moved house. The new school he will be going to is in our old town (he went to nursery there). The only problem is there is a family there who really have it in for my family, and me in particular. The problem started with my younger brother being the daughters girlfriend, they had 2 babies, and one sadly died. Since they split up, the daughter, who is in her early 20's and her mum, in her 40's have made a point of screaming abuse at me and my son and husband in the street. I have never actually spoken to either before, so I'm guessing the problem with me is my brother. When my son left this school 2 summers ago, the mum and daughter screamed abuse at me from their car (the mum had a child at the school at the time) and threatened to kill me and my son/ slit our throats etc, then chased me into school where I phoned the police. The case didn't go to court as she claimed she had postnatal depression and didn't know what she was doing, and it was dropped. This summer my husband and I were shopping when we came across her and her friend , and to cut a long story short she poked my husband in the eye, severing his eyeball, and told me she was going to "put my head in with a hammer". Of course, this was reported too, and yet again she claimed postnatal depression and it was dropped again. This girl now has my nephew at the schools nursery, and I am dreading bumping into her at school as I know she will appear again with her mother and her bodyguard (lol friend I mean). What would you do? The police are no help, and I don't want to cause hassle at school, but I want my son to attend the school in peace. Help!!!

Are the school fully aware of the situation?

I think you need to go back to the police again and explain your concerns so that they have it on record that you fear the behaviour will escalate.

The school as far as I'm aware think that it was a one-off (the family got moved out of their old school for the same kind of problem as far asI know) but I will mention it to the head when we go for our meeting ( we are still waiting on a meeting to discuss a start date for ds as he will be going part-time at first as he is autistic). I wasn't sure if the police were able to do anything as both times the cases were dropped by the magistrates court as supposedly she didn't know what she was doing.
