    I am betting they will be able to trace the person who created the account, if they pursue it with Facebook. I'm sure this isn't the first time Facebook has had to deal with this sort of thing. Sorry you had to go through it, we'lll keep you in our prayers. Thank goodness it happened on a Friday, and you will have the weekend to de-stress. Treat yourself to a piece of cheesecake or a new pair of earrings or a new silly cat toy or something just to make yourself feel better, okay?

    OMG - I am so sorry this happened to you!

    Are the police involved? They'd be able to get info from FB no problem.

    HUGS...have an awesome weekend and I hope this is settled soon.

    NONE of this is your fault.

    I'd be flipping out too. I rarely get angry, but when my privacy is invaded or someone pees on my leg and tells me it's rain, well, look out. I'm glad you weren't fired and vehemently defended yourself. I would think Facebook could find out who posted.
    But, Karen's right. It's the weekend, take a deep breath, take a nice warm bubble bath, light some candles, chill out, and relax.
    I'll be thinking of you also.



    I've been Boooo'd!

    What a terrible thing to happen! I'd be banging down the door to some official's office - accompanied by my lawyer!

    I HATE FACEBOOK and will have no parts of it. I can't understand either, why incidents such as this happen. What's the point, and why would someone assume your name to set up an account? What did they hope to gain, or in their mind, was it just a sick joke??? So tragic that it had to happen......

    Karen's advace is wonderful.
    I do feel it will be ok and that the people who did this will be found out and punished.
    I would be careful on what I say... ( I know this coming from me ) but you want your boss to be in your corner and not get people mad at you even though you have a right to be upset. Take the high road and tell them "I know you will get to the bottom of this"
    Best wishes.

    Thank you for your kind thoughts and words.

    There is more history than what I communicated. I panicked because I know one of the bosses would love to fire me if only because he didn't get to have who he wanted - someone that couldn't pass the teacher's exam so he cost a 3rd of what I cost. Yes, educators are for more petty and childish that the students we teach.

    Oddly enough, the issue was not approached today. I suspect that some of my students were being silly and did not realize the seriousness of what they had done.

    I will talk more later. I'm exhausted.

    Even though I'm a student, still I think this is idiotic and disgustingly stupid of the students to do such a thing and this is foolish of the headmaster to straight away scold you without asking questions and inspecting such a case.

    Hi again,

    I told y'all that these people do not like me.

    So today I supposedly insulted someone in front of the students (who made no mention of it, hmmmm.) I was called in the office and told I have no interpersonal skills. I apologized but I couldn't remember what I said and said so, but let them know that no insult was intended. Despite being sick, I had been in a jovial and lite mood and have no clue what I said.

    I was asked if I thought what I said was wrong. I replied I couldn't see how, because don't feel disrespectful towards that person, although I have cause to do so.

    I think someone was b3eing overly sensitive and trying to get me into trouble. The other issue was: he thought I should let the girls stay longer in the bathroom because I, a girl, do not understand other girls, while he, a father, understands girls.

    There are times I hate other educators. I think most are A$$holes.

    Thanks for listening.

    PS. I've been in a bit of a snit and doldrums at the same time so I've not been posting lately. Now off to do some homework.
