it's always "autocorrect." especially if there is no possible way it could ever be autocorrect.
"oh, stupid phone!"
To be fair, it does say she posted from the app. And if she didn't know how to spell it in the first place, I could see autocorrect coming up with disc jointed.
Bffs mom was at the bar and couldn't be bothered as sad as that is. Yes auto correct sucks. Simply put, the girls are home safe and the boy's parents are getting him help. I was sharing a scary situation because I needed another outlet. May not have handled it as best I could but when my baby calls me for help, we respond. Glad it wasn't anything more serious than it was. Going forward we are handling it with the cops. The BFF was still on hold with 911 when we got there which really concerns me but in light of everything going on with our weather I can deal. Luckily all of us parents had it difused. Should I have run up on the kid. no but I was pissed and just flipped a switch. Not smart but I saw the kid didn't have a gun and I just wanted him gone and to get my girls home. Everyone us safe and that was my only thought in all of this.

Oh man, that poor girl.
I really hope she is actually done with this guy, it sounds like she doesn't have a ton of good adult support in her life.
No she really doesn't which breaks my heart. She wept in my arms and said she is done. She's been trying to help him fix himself but I told her that she can't be responsible for that. He won't be fixed unless he wants to fix himself and at 17 she has a whole life to live and can't get caught up in that. I'm always here for her. She really is a sweet kid.
I'm sure we all may handle emergency situations in less than ideal ways on occasion. Not necessarily middle of the night vigilantism, but some headless chicken nonsense may be the norm. I'm also sure that, based on the tone of the OP, she expected a far different response than the one received. This wasn't mama bear, this was an unfortunate incident handled unfortunately.
OK, so I went to bed early last night and missed this: your H yells "we gotta go, dd is in trouble" and the two of you "haul ass" to where you think a kid has a gun. No one calls the police.
Why do you feel comforted that your H has a ccw permit? Isn't this exactly the kind of hot-headed fool you don't want around guns in a volatile situation?
Clear some things up for me. So, your DD and her BFF were out, met up with crazy dude. And then CD started making threats, so your DD drove to the dog park, tried calling 911 and got put on hold, and then telepathically told your H she needed help but didn't give details? And then when they got out, he choked her, so she hid? Who called his parents?
Was he in the car with them? At what point did the threats happen?
Why did neither of the actual adults call 911 while you were on the way? You said in your first post you got in the truck after she started screaming into the phone that he had a gun. Then later, you said you got through when you were half a block away. At what point were you told he had a gun?
