[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Reading through these replies, I’m curious:

Would those of you who find the email creepy/threatening/evidence of instability feel the same way if it was NOT anonymous?

Also curious if the equation changes if it was sent by a classmate or a parent, and whether it was sent to OP or to her DD.

I’ve just been surprised by how many posts seem to find the letter threatening or some kind of violation. I do think it’s unorthodox, but like OP, I don’t find it threatening and it reads like a desperate effort by a teenager to address a really upsetting situation. Not even saying I assume the letter is a definitive description of the situation (IME these situations rest a lot on individual interpretation and there are often no truly bad actors, just a series of poor choices). But I didn’t read it and think OP’s DD was in danger. At all.[/quote]

Yes obviously the anonymity adds to the creepy factor. If it wasn't anonymous, it would depend on who it was from.[/quote]
