This makes me so sad - why are the parents of those who claim to be bullied just shutting this down?! As in NO media at all and keeping their kids away from phones, twitter, FB, etc? Why are they taking this to social media to solve it?! I mean, I would deactivate every family FB account and block twitter on my phone/kids phones/computer etc. But I think I just don't understand.
Exactly. Why start a blog about this?
Tbf, the blog was already started. She's a mommy blogger. The fb page is new though.
One afternoon, after a nap, Melody asked her mom if sheโd be going back to school. Marti told her that it wasnโt like Jaide had sent any death threats. โIf she did, you certainly would not be going to school.โ

Then came the death threats.
And Marti is still somehow not at all suspicious of Melody?

Right? I might look dumb, but I guarantee I would catch on after that.
Given that there was a story not that long ago about a mother creating a teenage boy persona to catfish then torment/bully a girl her daughter had a falling out with, I wouldn't be surprised if there was someone else involved.
Jaide is not acting alone. She comes from a family of criminals and Iโm sure she has had lots of help. Even just looking at her public Facebook (and that of her mother) is very telling.
Anyone else want to wager that they're poor? And that's why she's been an easy target to blame all this on.
Well, she's black (don't know about poor) and the other two are two white girls, so do with that what you will. And this Marti person is an effing idiot who has no clue how technology works:
Cyberbully Victims April 29 ยท Edited So I got off the grid for a while not by choice at first, but because I had been kicked out of my network for a third time. I also wanted to feel safer knowing that these people couldn't access our devices anymore; to listen and watch. I have had no Internet connection from my home for almost a week. These people have already used up the majority of our data on our phones again. That was after my family switched to a new phone provider and all got new devices. Last night I came to realize and posted on my personal FB page that Im done being scared and angry. I will not let them control how I feel anymore. Guess my life must be way more intresting than theirs. For these people to stalk us nonstop, they have no "Real" life. They must be unable to communicate with other people face to face so find pleasure in trying to make our lives misersble.
I have always told my children if others are mean to you or bully you it is because of their insecurities and jealously. I know Melody and Julia are the type of girls that reached out to others that felt left out or were bullied. These girls are special It takes to much effort to be scared and angry. Not anymore. I won't allow them to break our Spirit

Well, there you go. I figured it was probably something like that.
As for the bolded part, I feel like that old lady in the commercial when talking to her friend about her "wall", "That's not how it works. That's not how any of this works..."
They can check their phone plans and see which phone is sucking all the data. I have one guess to which phone is doing it.
Either 1) the OP's friend is right and there is a hellapsychocyberstalking hounding her family, or more likely 2) the OP's friend is being taken for a ride by her kid and kid's friend(s) and is documenting her gullibility on multiple social media venues, with the FBI and the cops so she will be embarrassed and humiliated when the truth comes out.
And if it is the second, wtf does that say about the kids' character? If they keep this up they are humiliating their mothers and defaming their friend.

So AW* is an AW? Shocking.
*Whore in this context is not intended as slut shaming or sexist. Especially since I'm guessing all membefs of the household can be classified under this term.

Hold the phone (no pun intended). I want to make sure I'm understanding this right. Marti thinks that Dr. Sheldon Jaide Cooper is somehow using up all of the data on her family's phones from her home that is outfitted with spy technology despite her family possibly being poor? Because that is the dumbest shit I've ever heard and I want to believe that people really aren't that stupid, but this is what it sounds like she's saying.

A whole lot of pathetic to go around.
If you read the girl's Twitter account, her posts don't sound like threats so much as she sounds HIGHLY amused by the whole thing. Like, whoa, you two crazy snatches are accusing me of a WHOLE BUNCH of shit that I have no idea how to do and your moms look like fools for believing it!

Not to mention bringing in countless bullying organizations. This is a form of bullying in and of itself on the 2 girl's part.
At this point, I'm not sure there is anything that could be said to the parents that would change their minds. If the fact that their devices came back clean, the IP addresses match theirs, etc. isn't enough to make them re-evaluate their stance, then nothing really will. They're too far down the rabbit hole.

I am only laughing at this because I am picturing that Dr Phil or some other talk show idiot will pick up this story and run with it and soon people like my mom, who know nothing about internet security, IP addresses and how computers work, will be all panicking all over FB about something like this happening.
This post is even funnier. People who do not understand how technology works should be banned from using it.
Cyberbully Victims April 22 We had known for some time that our phones were being accessed/cloned, but were shocked to discover that a large amount of data was being used on our AT&T plans. In an attempt to avoid overage fees, we shut off the data on all of our phones for the remainder of the billing cycle.
We were unclear how this was happening, but beefed up our home networks, thinking our devices were somehow compromised through our wifi connections. The Coffey's had a plethora of issues with computers - viruses, malware, etc - so they also decided to install a firewall and purchased all new devices.
Incidentally, the girls have not received any new messages since taking these precautions.
Just last night, however, Marti discovered a software program that had been installed on her corrupted laptop, via wifi. Upon further investigation, she discovered that this software has the ability to stream media files (pictures and video) from the computer, and any other device that connected to the their wifi, to another system at a remote location. Without access to the Coffey's wifi, "Jaide" and her minions can no longer invade the girls' privacy!!
This made me think about the FB friend post where the friend's husband set up a dating profile and then claimed that someone broke in and used his computer to do it.
Disclaimer - I take everything back if these girls actually are getting cyberbullied/stalked.
Well, she's black (don't know about poor) and the other two are two white girls, so do with that what you will.
I need to come back to this, how did you find this out?
On the FB page there are screen caps of Jaide's tweets. Took about 2 secs to find her Twitter account complete with a photo of herself. ETA: I suppose it's possible one of the other two girls created this Twitter account to make it look like Jaide was harassing them, but I would imagine the photo is really her even if that were the case.
ETA2: I also find it highly amusing that the one mom (Christine Young) is a mommy blogger who's basically called on her arsenal of other mommy bloggers to harass Jaide's twitter account. There are 70+ retweets all accusing Jaide of posting death threats etc and they're all from other mommy bloggers.
