The threat of violence to someone under age is a misdemeanor. Call the cops, get them involved, start a paper trail.

hmmmmm,I think they consider '19' an adult.
But,I love my son! If he got hurt,I don't know what I'll do! She's even older than me,has 3 kids,and is tougher! |

Tell him to atleast make out a police report so that if anything does happen she can't make it look like he was the agresser or anything.

see,thats a problem.
he's to in 'love' and refuses to get the cops involved. I think,for my safety and my 9 year old.....we should move. (oh,I have 2 kids) |

(oh,I have 2 kids) I understand wanting to move but what would that do to your 9 yr old? a threat is against the law you can call the police whether he backs it or not you have a report... Is she a bodybuilder or is it the mind that is stronger than his/him? |

Not a good sign when someone would rather call the movers than the cops... <sigh>

You have to do whats best for your nine year old. Your son is an adult now and he needs to do what he needs to do and you need to do what you need to do. I say make the police report yourself and say how your afriad for you child. If you think your son is putting you and your other child in danger do not defend him he is an adult now.

It's hard for us mothers to let them deal with their own problems. I have a 19 year old, too. I think I'd be freaking if he dated a 37 year old. I'd tell him you are afraid and either get he or you to put a restraining order , against her. I would give him the choice but sound adamant. Moving sounds sucky for you, because of a woman who sounds a little out there.

SOunds to me like time for some TOUGH love. He is old enough to take care of himself. He is going around this lady. He wants her company, nothing you can really do. Don't support him in any manner. Tell him you totally disapprove & make him accountable for his actions.
Time to kick the baby bird out of the nest & make him grow up. Just my thoughts/you asked. |

I would suggest call her, tell her your concerns in a non-volatile tone & explain you love your son & if she loved him, she wouldn't want to cause him any pain. Making her your friend will ease tensions & turn the son off to her, I think anyway.

At 19 I was a Marine fighting a war in a foriegn land...
The thought of a 37 yr. intimidating this young man is in some ways humourous...Tell him to pick up his nutsac and tell this desperate housewife to push on... I can empathize with you as to wanting to protect your child, but you need to let him make adult decisions for himself |
