Well, she wasn't satisfied with the one phone call and my calm request she not call again. I was happy to leave it be and mention it to no one - other than you guys. But she wasn't finished.
She left no fewer than 9 ranting messages over the course of several hours. They got progressively more angry and threatening. The one that set me over the edge was number 5 when she started to talk about my kids - whom she has yet to meet. She told me "and wait 'till I get my hands on those two monsters of yours. You won't be able to ignore me when I smack their butts until they can't sit for a week. Then you'll be sorry." She followed up with more messages with threats about keying my car, more threats of physical harm to me and my kids should I "try to get my hooks back into HER man."
I should mention that I have made NO attempts to reconcile nor am I interested in reconciliation.
So my laywer has contacted the cell phone company and gotten copies of the messages and is applying to the court and the police not only for a restraining order barring her from contacting me and the kids but preventing her from coming within one hundred yards of us. I've contact the kids' camp and I kept them home today. There is an emergency court hearing this afternoon.
Thank you, dear former husband, for introducing this lunatic into our lives. I will protect my children. I am hoping these were just the ravings of a drunk person but I am not taking ANY chances.

Oh my gosh! I am so sorry you are going through this! You know, I can take a lot of crap but when my kids are involved, you better watch out!
I think you are so smart to get your attorney involved and move quickly to bar this lunatic from yourself and your children. She is insane! Drunk or not, she needs to be taken down a notch or two and be shown that she is not going to get away with this behavior. Sounds like he picked a real winner.
Hugs to you and your kids!

P.S. Thanks for the advice about tonight's visit between STBX and my kids. I just may take your advice. I don't want to go to "the skank's" (my term of endearment for his idiot girlfriend) house but she lives near the mall and I may just be conveniently in that area when it's time for him to bring the kids.
Wow... she really doesn't have a clue what she did by leaving all those messages... I'm glad you're taking action, becuase neither you nor your children should have to deal with crap like that... I'm thrilled to hear that your attorney was able to get copies of the message and appropriate actions are being taken--keep us posted!

Holy !!!!
Oh my gosh!
Wait til your X hears these messages?! Gosh, I hope he drops her like a lead balloon! Of course then she'll have it in for ALL of you!
Oh, I am SO SO incredibly sorry.
What a terrific thing technology is though -- to have the messages recorded and obtainable. No one has to take your word for it -- she condemned herself!
I hope the person is permanently removed from any possible contact with you or your children!!!!

You are doing the right thing... you are doing the right thing.... you are doing the right thing....
Hope court goes well... even if it was a moment of drunkenness.... she still has to be accountable for her actions (and I'm wondering if she's pissed at her new lover to be that hateful toward her new boyfriend's.... children!).
The one thing I told my EX form the beginning, and he knew I was serious as the day is long... that if I or my children ever felt the least bit unsafe over his actions, words... or those of anyone on his behalf, I would not hesitate for one second to take legal action, including calling the police.
