Well here's the deal, a week ago I got in a fight with my boyfriend's sister, because I had s*x with my boyfriend, their parents think I'm a w***e, I'm not allowed to date him blah blah blah. OKAY, so a week ago my boyfriend's mother said "If I ever see you two together I will go up to you and do something about it. I know I can't do anything in the school, but outside I can do anything I want." Well, you know his sister is in our school too so we can't really do anything or she'll nark and he'll get in trouble. We have been hanging out in school and what-not and I think his sister heard/saw something and told his mother, because now his mother is in the school everyday after school in the lobby, and she's been talking to my friends about me asking them questions. I feel threatened, I feel harassed and I want to be able to tell her she's breaking laws, but not take her to court, because if I take her to court and win, it might land her back in Venezuela. Do I have any legal rights, as a minor, against this woman?

Also I just e-mailed the Principal about the situation, and I may e-mail the superintendent too, or talk to him on tuesday, because I know I can make it so she's not allowed in the lobby if I feel threatened.

  1. It would help if you said which state your in, but even not knowing that I'd say that whaw she is doing is most likely illegal in some way shape or form. And from personal experience I can say that a teen can get a restraining order put on someone,. But youll probably need an adult to be with you though.


  2. She has told you to stay away from her son. You have refused to do so. Anything you attempt to do against her will be used against you. You are well on the way to a order of protection.

    Time to find another boyfriend...

  3. From the way in which you communicate, I suspect that you are both juveniles.  If that is so, then she cannot order you about, but the BF is required to obey his parents and his failure to do so can make him an incorrigible child.  If you are contributing to that, as you are, then she could very well get a restraining order and violating that order can get you locked up.  Your conduct now may not be criminal, but it is certainly disrespectful.  As to your question, hanging around at school and asking about you is not a crime.  In fact, it is the duty of a good parent.  You have no leg to stand on.
