A slag is unacceptable, especially coming from a grown woman?

I'm not surprised she's upset and rightly so. I'm sure she knows that this name-calling is all about the supposed adult in this situation and not about her, but I hope her boyfriend has someone there now to remind him that this is not a reflection on him or his relationship...

Well done for not punching this woman.

That's shocking and ignorant, she sounds the pits. No wonder the nice lad spends so much time round yours. You sound very kind and sensible OP.

I found out about this purely by accident.

Dd text his mum from my phone to ask her something. A little while later a text came through from the mum saying "sorry about what I said the other night, it's an ongoing joke in our family to call each other a slag, I realise it's worse for you"

It took me a minute to realise what she meant so I asked dd what had happened. She told me. Then I asked I text the mum back saying "this is Anon, that text was obviously meant for dd" and carried on with how dare you, she's just a child at 15 etc.

She text back saying it was said in jest but dd had obviously taken it seriously. So I checked with them both again and they're both adamant that it was said with nastiness during this argument. Dd heard it fgs.

And I don't think it should even be said in jest, it's still not acceptable.

It ended with me telling her not to have any further contact with dd. She text back telling me not to text her anymore.

How dare she? Really?

Just a quick update - so much for him being such a nice boy, he's stolen from my home.

A pound from me and a pound that was given to my 2 year old nephew.

I know it's only 2 pounds, but that's not the point.

I don't know what to do now.

He has admitted to stealing both pound coins. He's told his mother last night what he's done it and she hasn't even had the decency to even send me a text.

How would you deal with this?

Did he say why he stole the £2?

What does your DD think about the situation?

Gruntfuttock · 06/12/2014 12:21

So is he going to give the money back?
