Tupp, I hear you now. That was a compelling and crystal clear narrative about how you've experienced the system's response to you. And that maddening consulting with your mother bit. Reminds me of once (very minor scale example) I had a complaint about a minister but had NOT said so, simply emailed the office to ask what email is the right one to use if a congregant had a QUESTION about the ministry. They immediately CC'd him on the email trail so that totally shut me down.
Thanks for explaining it in such detail and sorry I didn't fully accept your boundary with the cops the first time you explained it!
All-knowing, all-seeing, more like all-opinionated (sorry!)--
love

Hops, no need to apologise, I really appreciate all suggestions and thoughts on the matter and appreciate the time that everyone spends tapping away on keyboards to answer. In an ideal world my son and I should be protected from the mad bint but unfortunately it just doesn't seem to happen that way here. Saying that, mind you, disability hate crime wasn't a term that was being used when all this happened ten years ago so it may well be different now but I will wait and see if they come to me first. And as for shutting you down with that email - it's a very unpleasant and sneaky way of dealing with things, isn't it, and has happened to me so many times. Interestingly on a larger scale in the UK falsely accusing parents is a method of shutting them down and stopping them making a fuss about poor service and a lack of resources - very common here for parents of disabled children to be blamed for the child's problems and/or expected to jump through hoops to suit other people instead of putting their child first. There are some horrible people around.
And you're not all opinionated at all! Sound advice, just previous bad experiences have put me onto Path B :) xx
