Death Threats

Forums:

My husband has been receiving letters in the post from the ex wifes mother lately (once or twice a year) - and they are religious letters with veiled threats using statements from the Jehovahs Witness bible that myself and members of my family would burn to death. This is the first letter I have ever seen - I saw the first one and didnt open it however this one was addressed to my husband and family.

I have done nothing but look after the child I am with and was in no way the person that split up the marriage it was over before I was ever on the scene.

My husband said oh its another one of those crazy letters - he didnt even read it. I however took this pretty personally.

Anyone got any advice on what I should do here?

Police?

Do you plan on going back to

Do you plan on going back to court any time soon?

Save them for a rainy day.
If he doesn't want to save them, then make a photo copy of them and save them for a rainy day.

Either way you can use them to prove a later date that the kids shouldn't live with the BM's mother as she is unstable.

I wasnt clear when I posted

I wasnt clear when I posted that - sorry - the step kid lives with his BM 60% of the time and is with us the rest of the time. When the ex-wife's mother comes to visit is when she tries to brain wash the kid with stuff. And we continue to get letters coming through the mail - twice a year....it could escalate ...that would not suprise me. So really the grandmother does not have much contact.

Well, is the BM like her

Well, is the BM like her mother?

I know courts can be a nightmare. That's why I said save them. Besides, unless you are fiscally comfortable, court battles weigh on the pocketbook!

All I can say is try to teach him the other sides of religion - for example, the kids went to BM for Christmas this year, so we celebrated Hannukah. It worked out great plus they learned all about the history of Judaism and the older one now understands some of the fighting in the "Holy Land" - well at least what the media and government wants us to believe.

At the end of the day, someone is super insecure and is finding strength in their "God" to make them feel like they are in control of the situation. Perhaps take a note from your DH and just don't let it get to you.
