my cousin sally is 1/2 black and 1/2 french. she dated this dude from reidsville north carolina. before they were ready to get married they decided to meet each others family members. my family liked him alot. but when she went to reidsville his family said " she's to dark.........if you marry her we will disown you and have no ties to you." he went what his family said. sally got depressed and gain over 100lbs. sally doesn't talk to her ex-boyfriend for weeks. last weekend at our family gathering she gets a call from her ex's mother and she was demanding an explanation why she and her son were no longer talking to each other. sally hung up on her. this past monday the woman showed at sally's job and demanded an explanation why they weren't talking. sally said " your son decided that since you were going to disown him if he married me.......i decided to end our relationship and start seeing other people." the woman was mad and is now harassing sally and sally called the police. they said if she is not breaking the law there nothing they can do. all sally wants is to find a way so that woman can stop bothering her. i wanna help but don't know what to do our what to say.

Sally should ask her job to call the police if the mom shows up at her work again. Block her calls. Document every time she calls or shows up somewhere. You can get a temporary restraining order for 2? weeks. You file it at the courthouse and have to pay the police to serve the subpoena. The time it takes until the court date is a temporary order. Sally can write on her hand "I am unwilling to discuss this." and just read that and end the discussion (hang up if on the phone, turn away or leave or shut the door) then document it. She should take all of her documentation with her to the judge. She does not have to say any thing at all to that lady just because she is demanding her to. If she breaks the temporary order call the cops immediately and that is definitely breaking the law and will be on the record. Good luck. I wish you serenity

what police has she called?! they don't sound qualified. uggh... the woman is breaking the law, its called "harassment". she should make sure that people have witnessed this woman at her house and her work....and if the woman calls save the messages and record the conversation. put a court order restraining order and if she ever shows up at the job or at the house then take her butt to court. no one has to put up with this type of nonsense. why does she care if her son and sally are no longer together? that woman is crazy.
