17 is too young to have a really serious relationship. Can't understand why his ex-girlfriend is creating a big deal out of it that she would involve her family with the break up. I mean, what for? And what kind of family does she have to even go to the extent of staling your son? That is crazy! They should help their daughter to move on and teach her the realities of life.

Granted this is still not a normal reaction to a break up but I wonder if this is her first one. Her family could very well not know about her behavior. I would imagine a good parent would talk to their daughter if they noticed this going on.

When you say getting involved her family is actually helping her act this way?

Clearly his ex girlfriend does not know how to deal with break ups. How long as it been? She shouldn't be following him around in the first place but hopefully she'll stop soon. He may not want any girlfriends until he is older now but at this rate he might be afraid to have another one even when he's ready. Hopefully she just leaves him alone soon. If for some reason if this problem fails to go away on its own I'd address it though. If your son felt comfortable I suppose he could send a text message just politely asking her to leave him alone. Since they're so young though you might consider calling the parents instead. Honestly for her to have such obsessive behavior I wonder if she needs some sort of help. Most likely I think the problem will solve itself. Sometimes teenagers don't know how to properly deal with their emotions and do strange things. She's probably very hurt and does not know how to to handle it. Hopefully your sons next dating experience turns out better then this.

I did read the part where you said she's getting her whole family involved. Did you mean they were actually helping her follow your son? I just figured maybe they were giving him a hard time or something. Its hard to imagine a parent encouraging such behavior but they're a lot of strange people out there. I wonder if she's telling them something different to make her family act that way. If it is her family aiding in the stalking then I'd probably just get the school involved. Hopefully that solves it. Then of course if it doesn't you can always go to the police as a last resort.

Everyone just have their own way of dealing with their own personal relationship problems and your son's ex girlfriend is no exception. Other than resorting to violence on your son, I don't think you will need to worry much than your own son's emotions and state of mind. Sometimes, things aren't what they seem to be and this is the area you will need to pay particular attention on for your son. Talking it out is by far the best and highly recommended therapy of getting over things. I hope all's well with your son here.

Oh, he has a stalker. That's quite scary. I hope they will stop from stalking him. How about talking to the girl's parents. Explain to them that your son isn't ready yet for a relationship. The girl is 16 so she can still meet a lot of boys out there. I guess she's madly inlove with your son. I hope she will get over him soon. Be careful. Sometimes people get crazy and do stupid things. Stay safe always. Happy mylotting.

There will always be people getting other people involved with all that is going on in their lives. What you and your son must do is sit back and let her and all the people that she has dragged into it get on with it, sooner or later they will get bored if they do not get a reaction to what they are doing or saying. You are right that he should enjoy himself while he is young and think of what he wants to do for his future. If he is still being stalked get the reg number and ask the police if they can sort it, it could be a coincidence.

Hmmm. Yes too young still and so with the GF. Your son must be a good catch so it's hard to let go. I am more scared if yor son wIll have a new GF. for sure this previous GF will not stop stalking, following and talking about him. She has a tendency to become war freak and could really hurt someone big time. Just be careful. and Yes your son is still so young he needs to concentrate more on his studies.

I think this is common for teenagers these days, to take it too hard and feel like there's no more tomorrow. But I think the relatives or family should be mature about it and let them handle their issues. Most relationship (even at a young age) end with having affairs with other people, the girl is lucky because he didn't exchange her for someone else, rather, he just wanted not to have girlfriend for now - as you said he wanted to enjoy life first. I guess your son just needs to deal with it. It's not his fault that he didn't want a girlfriend for now. Perhaps it would have been best if he told her he was gay hehehe.. so that she'll move on. hehehe.. Well, kidding aside, there are people like that and it takes time for them to really move on. Good luck to your son! Have a great mylot experience ahead!

This is very common with the youngsters. I have a teenage son who also broke with his girlfriend. And the girl still trying to get him back. The girl message me on my facebook -since she's in my friend's list. I just hope this will end soon.

Hi friend, good to hear that your son planned to live his life as a single until getting the maturity, surely his decision is a right one. 17 years is not the age for relationship, he needs more maturity. Guide him in a good way.

I can't blame your son if he doesn't want a girlfriend for now. Anyway, he's still young and I think he's right in enjoying his life with just friends and family for now. When he's a bit older the maybe he can start dating again. It's just so sad to see that some teens now tend to be so overly dramatic about most things, most especially in relationships.

Good for him. Girls now a days are like stalkers and obsessive. he needs to find someone who wont be like that and give him his freedom.
