Question

Me and my 8 yr old daughter has just moved to a new neighborhood and the neighbor does not like me my daughter got on the school bus and the neighbors 7 or 8 year old daughter started making my daughter feel bad by calling (me) her mom a whore and other names saying her mama knows me. Can I get her for slander or what can I do?

And I mean sue the mother not the daughter because the mother is the one that told this to the child...



Answer

You can't sue for defamation of character or slander. While what happened was inappropriate and bad. To sue for defamation offenses, you need to prove financial damages. Comments between children won't lead to financial damages. I would have a talk with the school about the bullying that your daughter is experiencing.
