I need asome expert advice. I have a up stairs neighbor that keeps giving my 8 year old son problems. The man is 71 and has no kids ,never been married and has no family . I know that he is misserable but he seems to have it out for my son.He has even started with him in our own home. My son is afraid to be around him. I have 3 other children that he never bothers. My son has never called him a name the only thing he is guilty of is telling me when he feels threatened by this man, and looking at him when heis disaplined to see if he says any thing about it . I have a 4 year old that has swore at the man kicked the man and spit in his face and nothing was ever said ,he just looked the other way. also he called my son a brat, jurk and a couple of other names[ he even told my son that he hated him]. the other day he had me so stressed and up set that I started to cry . he told my so that it was his fault[my son that is]and not his. my son is starting to come down with depression because this man keeps knocking his self esteem down. I have no money to move [ plus we have a land contract on the house ,so we kind of are tied to the house. ] is ther any leagle routs to turn. For my childs sake.
