NC because it's outing and posting here for the traffic.
Background-I live on a council estate in a major city where there is a lot of drug dealing / taking. Usually the druggies will move if they see residents and / or if we ask.
This afternoon, after I asked a group of men smoking pot "if they'd mind going elsewhere since my kids were playing" I was threatened. The druggie said he'd send 20 men over to my house to beat me up in front of my kids. I called the police who came and were excellent.
But my 4 year old is now scared that someone is going to come and hurt me and her friends. What can I do / say to reassure her?
