Partner making snide comments on DDs facebook

[MuckyBogStain]

DD is currently away in London for the week and this morning posted a status on facebook about her breakfast saying it was lovely and the chefs can cook.

DP then posted a reply saying "well that's generally what chefs do". A number of people have "liked" DPs reply which to me is a little like group piss-taking.

He's always doing this though and we've talked about it before and his answer is that she shouldn't post "dopey" status updates which he justifies by saying none of the other 14/15 year olds on his facebook post daft comments like she does and that she should have grown out of it by now.

AIBU to see that he's done it again?

DBF I don't think it was an isolated incident,it sounds like a catalogue of piss taking. And I think OP is not BU,eventhough her DD is 14/15,she is still OP's child. I would delete him.

Maybe people are different and deal with things in different ways?

Unless you and the op are infact the same person, if so thats abit weird.

I don't think a grown man or woman should have 14/15 year olds on their facebook unless it is their child.

He sounds like a real charmer. If he spoke to my dd like that he would get a flick on the nose!

This is surely a problem best solved by those lovely ladies over at netmums?

sounds like he needs to Get A Life

seriously fast! 3)

And better than blocking is to lock him down with settings so he cannot see a thing! Much more pointed! :D

Florence, think what you may, I'm just amazed and irritated at the preciousness on this issue.

How the fuck are these kids going to survive in the real world and in the competitive workplace if they're such delicate, sensitive little flowers at the age of 14/15 they go running to mummy as soon as someone cracks an (admittedly not exactly side-splitting) smart-arsed remark?

Good grief!

SGM My comments are as necessary as yours. They just don't happen to be in tune with your own opinions. However this is a public forum, the OP asked, I answered.

She can stop him seeing anything on her wall without deleting him as a friend

He sounds weird. Mocking a kid isn't clever.

Dogsbestfriend sounds unhinged.

Give him a slow clap for getting one over on a teenager.

He must be very proud.

I dont understand why a grown man should feel the need to be commenting on the thoughts of a 14 year old.

oh for heavens sakes... it was a daft comment to make, it got an equally daft reply.. if something like that upsets you or her, then you both need to toughen up a bit..

what has happened to people these days that nobody is allowed to do any gentle ribbing or piss-taking without someone crying out "ooooh I am being bullied" or being all "offended"...

why?? should adults not communicate with anyone under the age of 18 nowadays? It is his partners daughter.. not some random stranger.

I have the teenage children of friends and family members on my FB.. I dont see anything strange in having conversation on line with them.

SGM - you're making it up as you go along. Nowhere did I say that "nothing matters unless it's exactly the same situation as [my] DD is having".

Aside from that, my DD is not having any form of situation relevant to this.

Stranded, I have a host of perfectly kind, intelligent, mature if a bit piss-takey adult friends who would have replied just as the DP would.

And a 14 yo daughter plus a host of perfectly capable, mature piss-takey friends of DDs who would have replied, "oh ha ha very funny" or somesuch and thought not another jot about it.

My Ds and his mates take the piss out of each other on fb all the time

I have him and a couple of his mates on my fb ,but I don't join in their banter

The thing is, there is having a laugh and gently ribbing somebody and there is being a smart arse, sarcastic twat like this bloke is.

Yep, SGM I'm dismissing this child's overreaction to a simple daft remark, just as I would if this were my own 14 yo daughter.

But I didn't say what you have stated so please don't misquote me.

All dcs are different,Dogsbestfriend,my 2 girls are like chalk and cheese. One would take on an army,the other one was scared of bunny rabbits! Just because one child can handle things,does not mean the child that cannot should put up or shut up.
