Is it normal my own mother stalks me?
I already know it isn't normal for a mother to stalk her child. What I need to know is what steps I must take to make her stop stalking me.
Let me tell you a little bit about myself first.
I am 25 years old, I have a 3 yr old daughter, and I am a single mother, recently going through a divorce.
When ever I enter my mom's house, she just screams at me, and puts me down(a lot of verbal abuse in front of my daughter). Some of the things she says are "You are the biggest dissappointment to me and your father."
"What are doing with this boy? why are you hanging out with him? You should not be hanging out with him!" (talking about my newest bf and she was screaming it in my face, while my bf was standing next to me, on our block, while everyone on the block was staring!) She humilated me in front of the neighbors, friends, and entire block!
Yesterday she showed up at my bf's house, and actually went and tried opening the door! my bf locked it. Then she called me at 9:30pm, and i told her "DO NOT COME OVER.IT IS LATE AND MY DAUGHTER IS SICK, IN BED AN ASLEEP ALREADY! My landlord does not like visitors past 9pm!"
she shows up. nobody answered the door because everyone was asleep. I happen to be at my bf's last night. How ever my mom doesn't know I live here in his mom's house because she is helping me have a roof over my head(so i don't have to keep moving with my daughter)
Today my mom showed up at my apartment, and my bf's again.she tried opening the door again!
I texted her "stop harassing me,stop stalking me,stop showing up at my apartment, and stop showing up at my bf's apartment! if you come here one more time the police will be called!Especially if you attempt to open the door and walk in again!That is trespassing!STOP IT AND LEAVE ME ALONE! Stop disrespecting me, I am an adult and a mother! For the record you do not take better care of her than I do! Stop trying to control my life and stop putting me down! I need a break from you, so just don't contact me for a long time! If you show up one more time, the cops will be called and you will be arrested for trespassing!"
an hour later she calls me 5x in a row. I didn't answer my phone. 30 mns later my dad calls, I ignored it too.
I am sick and tired of being treated like garbage from my own parents.(especially my mother)
They are always so willing to scream and verbally abuse me, and try to make every decision for me in my life, and try to force me to give my two cats away as well. They never offer a solution to any problem (if there is a problem I may be having at that time), and they never offer any financial help to me.
Any advice on what I must do if my mother continues to harass, show up and trespass again, please give to me. PS
I am in San Jose California(for any one who knows about the laws here, please tell me what i need to do to make her stop!)
Thank you!
