Dear Attorneys,
My ex-wife is bashing me on Facebook. My son is actually the one who saw it. Is there anything that I can do?
Sincerely,
Bashed Bobby
Dear Bobby,
That is always a tricky situation. In general, unless she is violating a specific clause in your underlying Court Order, then no, you cannot take any action through family court. It’s unfortunate that she is stooping to that level. However, you may want to reach out in writing (text is acceptable) and indicate that your son saw it and that it is not in his best interest to see those things and she is not creating a good co-parenting relationship. If she does not cease the behavior, you eventually may have enough evidence to pursue a Post-Judgment Motion to Open and Modify to either prevent her from doing that in the future and/or force to attend co-parenting counseling to discuss what is going on.
