Please don't feel that way, I wish you were my neighbour, you sound so innocent and sweet.

I realise how hard your husband works, and he has such a good profession.

See how people make judgements, they pre-determine what someone's like without realising other things about the person.

Your kids are good and okay, don't worry what that bitch says, she has the problem. And usually the other people she gossips to will take no notice of her. This is what she has a label of being: "she likes to help". In psychology, this usually means: she is a know-all, doesn't have anything better to do with her time, and makes trouble in the n/hood. People usually don't take people like this woman seriously anyway, they may join in, but if you met the people she rubbishes you to, they will look at you in a positive way and put that 'b' in the scrap heap.

Please don't lose hope, I was like you, thinking the 'b' was rubbishing me all over the place. You know you are okay, your kids are okay and your husband. That's all that matters.

You sound like the ideal neighbours I would like next door to me and I would give you a hand when you needed one, and share a nice cup of coffee with you.

Pity I can't do that where I am, I don't even know who my neighbours are. The ones to my right are ferals from a certain description and a certain nationality, and I don't wish to appear racist. I feel isolated and pray to God that someone nice will replace this rogue noisy family that came unannounced.

I hope you get to speak to at least one person this 'b' is rubbishing you to. Without even knowing you, I think you are the ideal neighbour, who works very hard for their money, and is trying to do a damned good job raising their kids.

You will be surprised that when you least expect it, good will come out of this mess, and that 'b' will get what she damned right deserves, and that is, no one to talk to anymore.

Best of luck to you and your family
