Weekend Update

Hi Everyone....hope your weekend was a great relaxing time! We used the time this weekend to catch up on family stuff. Specifically our long list of tv shows that we all hadn't watched. We whittled it down quite a bit.

On Friday night we called the police and had them come over to fill out a police report on the whole phone harassment thing. It started out good and then Mr. Police Officer decided it was time to play Good Cop, Bad Cop all by himself and ask some very interesting questions. Now don't get me wrong....I understand the purpose of this type of interrogation but as a pretty responsible parent..."Don't you fricking think that I asked the same questions before calling the police into this??" He asked the standard, "do you have any idea who's calling you?", "did you have an argument with someone at school and this could be them getting back at you?" Then he asked what school she went to, Bri's school is divided into 2 campus'. The one campus is traditionally focused on all things academia and the other campus is purely a trade and tech campus that has a high rate of kids that are on their final chances at any kind of schooling. Bri attends both campus'. When he got this response his eyebrows raised and I had to jump in and remind him that harassment really had no basis in grades! DONKEY!
Mr. Police Officer advised Brianne that this was not a joke, when he found this young man....criminal charges would be laid for criminal harassment...no laughing matter. Brianne told him that she hoped she found him. She remained calm and composed and I think he finally realized that she was really frightened.

Harassment continued through the evening but the call at 3am sent Hubby over the deep end when Phoneboy advised Bri that he was around the corner with his friend.

Hubby did what no police officer could do, he offered, the option of stopping, to this boy with the promise of losing of everything he loved if he continued to call and harass is daughter. I think he mentioned to the young man that he really didn't know this family well or our total focus on accomplishing what we set out to. He was advised that Hubby would hunt him down and shove the phone in places that would be quite uncomfortable if he continued on his present trajectory.

Apparently that was sufficient information as Bri's only had one phone call since. I guess we'll see what happens this week.

Bri and I decided that it would be a waste of time changing her phone number if she was going to continue to share her number.

We'll see what happens this week.

Hoping you all had a great weekend!
TTYL!
