What to do if my ex-boyfriend’s mother is trying to take out a restraining order on me?

There has been no abuse on either side and we are no longer together however, we are friends and like to hang out together. We are both underage. Will she be able to obtain a restraining order?

Under the laws of all states in this country a parent of a minor has the legal right to seek a retsraining order to protect his or her child. In the matter that you have written about, I suggest that you consult with your parents about the situation you now find yourself in and see what your parents can do to try and resolve it without getting the court system involved.
