When I was a child , my mum banned my friend from the house after he scribbled on their bed.

Two of my husband's friends who he allowed to do coke in the back of the car while I was sitting in the drivers seat 5 months pregnant. I flipped out at them and banned them from our house. (I wasn't driving, we were at a wedding and I was cold and bored because I didn't know anyone).

One of DH's former mates who stole money and jewellery from our room to buy drugs. A so called friend whom I told to go and smoke on the balcony because I was pregnant and she smoked all night in our living room whilst chatting to her married boyfriend online.

Yes a neighbour from my previous house....she would turn up everyday with her two kids and let them run riot and thrash my home.She never told them off,one morning she turned up,I ignored the door then she stood while they kicked at my front door.....I opened my door and shouted and told her to never come back.

A couple of neighbours from up the road who treated me like a mug....never again

An old school friend of DH's who came over for a drink. Within the first half hour he had said so many outrageously sexist, racist and homophobic things that I gave DH "the look". He abruptly stood up, ushered said friend out the door with the excuse that they were going to the pub, then came back about 10 mins later alone. I don't know what DH said to him but he never contacted us again, a few years later we heard that he went to prison for smuggling drugs.

Dp exwife..... Just cause tbh

Not banned as such, but DP's racist, sexist, bullying BIL will never set foot over our threshold.

My OH siblings, maybe one would be allowed over threshold but not the the other two. They teamed up with the mental ex wife and made up some god awful lies about me. Could of ruined had I not worked in the legal sector and still have friends in it.

*ruined my life

My ex's step uncle banned him from their home due to his behaviour towards me. It caused a massive rift but to this day I thank him for being one of the only people to actively stand up to ex's behaviour (he was not my ex at the time).

Dementor is precisely the term I use to describe my ex-mil too!
I can feel the joy suck out of me and a dark cloud descend just thinking about the vicious creature. No contact but I dread her finding anyway to get back in my life. But like a toxic gas I fear she'll manage find a way to seep through one day.

Yep. I banned one of DD's friends. Said friend, along with my DF's DD, cause a shitstorm which left me getting calls from 2 other parents of LittleScruff's friends. They informed me about the SM posts that DF's DD and DD's friend produced and put on SM.

I blew a gasket and banned LScr's friend and DF's DD is borderline on being banned as well.

Don't get me wrong. I don't want to fall out with people, but if I have to because of the amount of shit their kids cause for my own, then yeah, I'll not think twice about banning them.

Some of the kids have MH issues, and that a reason to understand what is driving their behaviour, BUT, as long as they know that bullying others on SM is wrong, there's absolutely no excuse for the shit they cause, leave at my door and walk away expecting me to sort it out. I don't take too kindly to kids who know they are being revengeful and vindictive. I clamp down hard on that behaviour.

"I've banned Dh's hobby acquaintance because he's racist, misogynistic and bigoted in every way you can imagine and very vocal about it. Thinks he's hard done by because he's a white male." Ive got one of them too Zippy, DH has blocked him off twitter too because of the bile he posts. Your dh doesn't use binouculars in his hobby does he?

MIL is banned from overnight stays due to slagging off our housekeeping, also cuz she can't take a hint to fucking leave.

Emotionally abusive PIL are no longer welcome. I prefer DC to only see them in public places because PIL are prone to throwing actual physical tantrums. being in the presence of strangers forces them to control themselves.
