• wombat said on Sep 06, 2007....

  Hopefully, this dude is all talk.  But, as a mother myself of a young son, I would not leave anything to chance.  The situation does not sound good.  Hope you can get your son under your watchful eye until things are under control.  I am like you, I would move heaven and earth to protect him.  Sorry this is going on!

  I'm Sorry Hon I wish there was something I could say. I understand about the Don't mess with My Kid...feelings,  I can Get Hot Under the Collar for you , just thinking about it.  He does need to find a way to straighten out this Apt thing. Even Get Police to go with him and then put a restraining order on the guy. Good Luck What ever you do hon.

  Mimi--IS there any way that your son and someone else can clear his belongings out of the apartment. How much longer is he bound by the lease on that place?
  
  
  He needs evidence/witnesses to the threats in case he needs to involve the police.
  
  
  I wish I could offer something more positive here. Hopefully, it will all turn out for the best.

  mimi, i wish like hell i knew what to say. please listen to what the other mothers have to say.

• MissMimi said on Sep 06, 2007....

  Zee, the lease doesn't expire until next March.  He has a letter from his employer stating that he has been transferred more than 50 miles away, which entitles him to be released from the lease according to the terms of the lease, as long as the room mate signs off on it.  I'm sure you can guess that this punk refuses to do that.
   
  My son was on the phone with the police earlier.  Unfortunately he left the house here and is not answering his cell phone.  I have no idea what was said.
   
  Okay, I just found out that the cops won't do much because the room mate hasn't done anything--so far it's just words.  They recommended that he remove all valuables from his vehicle and lock it for the night.  Tomorrow they will go with him to remove his belongiings from the apartment.
   
  And I feel better.  I just read him the riot act.  It takes a lot to get me to lose my temper--this did it.  Ahhh...

• Zayda said on Sep 06, 2007....

  Will the fact that his roommate has threatened him with bodily harm and that the police are going to help him remove his belongings from the apartment help get him out of his lease? He really needs to check into that.

• rupert7 said on Sep 06, 2007....

  This is easy to say and i hope there is truth in it.It is actualy a favorite saying of mine. It is a Russian saying: "He who threatens never does and he who does never threatens". Meaning if someone is serious he doesn't talk about it he just does it! On the other hand, the one that is constantly threating... you just wait, I'm gonna .etc,etc- is usually what my dad would have called "all mouth and trousers." A gutless wonder that is full of crap and bullshit! Hopefully thats all this bloke is!

• MissMimi said on Sep 06, 2007....

  I suspect you may be right, rupe.  He's got a big mouth but he's all talk and no action.  He threatened to get a friend of his to do the dirty work.  He's a pussy.
   
  Let's just say, I hope you're right.

• polarheart said on Sep 06, 2007....

  Mimikins, I am so sorry to hear this, it must be really hard for you.  I hope that your son finds a breakthrough here, but I know this is playing on your mind so much coz he is YOUR son.  ((((((((((Mimi)))))))))))))  I am thinking of you!

• Suddenrain said on Sep 07, 2007....

  I'm thinking this might have a lot to do with trying to impress the girl. I hope he gets his things and has better judgement on the next girlfriend he picks.And his friend wasn't much of a friend either! But as the mother of boys myself, I have been through similar situations. And I know how you feel. Don't mess with my kids! Huggggsss

• fearing said on Sep 07, 2007....

  MissM - I know exactly the anger you are talking about.  I don't have a temper but heaven help the poor soul who messes with one of my sons.   I hate this is happening.  Good that he has gone to the police even though they aren't doing anything.  You want a record of this.  Keep us posted.

• quietone said on Sep 07, 2007....

  Well, hopefully he will be out of that place with help from the right people.  If I were him, I wouldn't worry about  the lease...this is a totally different situation.  Hope he will be safe. Can he get a stalking/harrassing order against this guy?

• pickersplock said on Sep 07, 2007....

  Well, as Mr Plock always says, "Nothing says leave me the $%^# alone, like a baseball bat to the head!"
  He's kidding, and so am I.  I think you're handling things well Mimi.

• sweet_cookie01 said on Sep 07, 2007....

  mom can you adopt me?! i would love to have you as a mother and talk that way to semi hubby!..giggles...

  but seriously... can your son transfer to a new place?

• phantomblogger said on Sep 07, 2007....

  No, threats should be taken likely. I would suggest calling the police just for an escort to obtain his belongings out of the apartment. His life is more valueable then to take threats likely. I hope all works out and please utilize law enforcement to obtain his belongings and have your son make a report just in case any future problems should arise. God Bless

• botoni said on Sep 07, 2007....

  Missmimi.....your 'nobody messes with my kids' attitutude is what will help your son grow to the man you want him to be. Knowing mom is beside you even though she is pissed is an uncountable treasure. I m with everyone else. He should take advantage of the police escort to get his stuff. The roommate will eventually figure out that not releasing your son from the lease creates much hassle for himself and wont be worth it.

• RollingC said on Sep 07, 2007....

  Barking dogs don't (usually) bite.  But threats are no fun and actually illegal.  Your son needs to move out (or his roommate does) and if he's threatened again he should pick up the phone and call the police.....get a paper trail started and this bully will either go away or shut up.
  Good luck and God bless

• kruuyai said on Sep 07, 2007....

  Mimi, that's kind of a weird clause that his roommate has to sign off... how did that get into the lease?

• wakingharmony said on Sep 07, 2007....

  MissMimi~ Please Don't allow you your son to take any chances....I am begging you. You just never know how someone will act. My cousin Nick was murdered at 15 1/2 because of a feud his 1/2 brother had. the movie "Alpha Dog" was based on Nicks Story (My cousin) I wrote a bit about it, and will be again on his Birthday 9/19/84... You can look it up anywhere InMemoryOfNicholasMarkowitz ...They Lived in a well to do neighborhood..his murderer Jesse James Hollywood grew up with his older 1/2 bro. Please don't take any chances {{{{{{{{{{MissMimi}}}}}}}}}}

• CreativeWoman said on Sep 07, 2007....

  I hope it all turns out in a way that keeps your son safe, Mimi.  I assume the girlfriend is no help in calming things down?  I'll bet your son could go to court to break the lease.

• lioneljay said on Sep 07, 2007....

  Mimi, it sounds like things are going the way that they should. It might be a good idea for your son to see if the landlord will vist the apartment while he and the police are there removing his things. That way the landlord might be willing to let your son out of his obligations under the lease even if the roommate won't sign off. It should be patently clear that the roommate's refusal is not based on reality but spite.

• MissMimi said on Sep 07, 2007....

  I'm convinced that his ex-girlfriend is fueling the fire.  My son made the colossally stupid mistake of starting to talk to her again, and the room mate found out. 

  The police know about the situation, and have taken a report.   So a paper trail has been started.  LJ that's a good idea to ask the rental office to be present when he removes his belongings.  Thanks to all of you for all the advice and support.  What a pain in the butt.

  I don't care about possessions.  I want my son to be safe. 

• Twylarants said on Sep 07, 2007....

  I wish we all could send  our sons to kick the roommate's ass. And the bitch girlfriend's too.  Everyone's right.. you don't fuck with a Mother's son!

• GrapeKoolaid said on Sep 07, 2007....

  Mimi:  I see that you've already started on this, so I'll say little on the matter.  Just make sure you(your son, actually, as it's his mess) document everything.  That way, if things get ugly, you(your son) will have ample paperwork to support your claim.  

• eviljesus666 said on Sep 07, 2007....

  i dont know about where you live but i know here in georgia you can have them taken off the lease.

• Alyss said on Sep 07, 2007....

  Mimi, I'm so sorry that your son finds himself in this position. 

• Jenna said on Sep 07, 2007....

  Mimi.....The hair on the neck of the Lioness always goes up.  I wish you well on a quick solution to this problem.  It must be hell for you sweetie.  Good luck and keep us posted.  I do not know what I would do....I only know the gloves would be on......

• husbandhater said on Sep 07, 2007....

  Mims He's gotta call a cop and get an escort to get his things out of the apartment. Maybe place his things in storage till he gets a new space. Kiss off the rotten roommate and the skankless wonder and gather the lesson of people who he should stay away from in life and meet a better group of indivduals. Sorry for the headache Mims. Maybe this will help him get his act together.
   
  Go for it mama Tiger

  hope your son is doing good. BTW dont get frustrated. It hapens to everyone and it part and parcel of school days. :)

• skald said on Sep 10, 2007....

  I am so sorry. Is he at college ? Can you go to the principal.?
  Or maybe you should go to the police.
  I do understand you so well. My son got threatened by people who meant to kill him. I had to hide him. But this is quite an other story.  And it was 10 years ago. I might blog about the bad times we have. but then there has to be a point to do it.  I  just want to say I am sorry. We want to protect our children. Luv
