Confidentiality...

[ummmm]

I'll try and keep this short.....

My son (16) has been with his girlfriend (15) for over a year. From quite early on her Dad was against the relationship and we really didn't know why.

Turns out that her dad has a relative working at the school. She works in the exclusion unit which deals with exclusions (obviously) internal exclusions and detentions. It has come to light that she has told my sons girlfriends his whole history.

I'm not defending any of his bad behaviour in the past but just for background info, and to know he's just not a naughty brat, he reacted badly to the death of our uncle and within days of that my dad was told he had 6 months to live. My son was extremely close to both.

His grief caused him to have outbursts. The school noticed there was something amiss, because it was out of character, and helped us by arranging bearevment counselling through SS. Is behaviour improved slowly and within the year he was 'almost' back to his normal self.

Now...my next issue. My son has now left the school but some things from home have again been repeated to the girlfriends dad. Turns out that this woman has been questioning my younger son!

My son was 12 when he got into trouble at school.

What would you do? Because of this the father grabbed my son round the throat and threatened to knock his teeth out!!

[ummmm]

The woman is an Aunt through marriage.
