Carpet Bombing My Book

[cheerfuldom]

okay so your amazon reviews look pretty good to me. I went and liked the positive reviews. 17 5 start and only 3 one star. Where some of the one star taken off?

And what you were saying about you not doing daycare right now? Is your daycare closed? Did I miss something?

I wasnt seeing alot of negative posts on your YouTube videos either.....where you able to delete those?

Perhaps things are getting better at this point?

But unfortunately, I have also been on one very popular parenting site which received A LOT of flack from an offshoot of women. This second group follows the first group, reposts stuff to make fun of it and will actively go after people. For example, my sister start a discussion about what working women do with their dogs during the day such as kenneling, etc. It was a simple discussion that turned ugly fast! She called me crying when these people started harassing her, telling her if she was willing to kennel a dog she was probably the kind of mom to abuse her own child.......she is a mom, a great mom, but she is a sensitive person and this exploding post was craziness. The main group got ugly, the second group got worse. People were finding and posting her private information to incite others to call animal control on her! It was bad. She was an admin on the first group and I think that was why they went after her.

I have no idea why people get so ugly.

I can understand posting a review that said "I read the book, I dont agree" but these people that are going crazy finding your stuff and accusing you of abuse, that is just bullying and I dont understand why a person would be a part of this.

Cheerfuldom, I think she is mainly consulting right now and not running a daycare home.

I am so sorry this is happening to you. I gladly would have put my own children in your care.

I left a 5 star review (bought it and read it!) and listed the other reviews as helpful and the unverified 1 star reviews as unhelpful.

The day they did this there were O reviews on barnes and noble and 0 on the paperback because it came out that day. They did a total of five with two of them being removed due to cursing. At the time we had 14 five star reviews on the ebook... of which 12 were verified users, one from a member here unverified, and one from an attorney I work with. It took my rating down to three plus stars until the two were removed.

The youtube comments were removable. We could have removed the blog one but I left it there so an example of the venom and accusations remained. I needed that for any complaints made to licensing. I have already turned it in to child protective.

The book had only been out for four weeks when they did this. It seems like longer but it's only been for sale for six weeks.

If it weren't for them I would have a perfect five star review from people who purchased and read the book. NOT cool to hit someone's money like that. I made up the sales in consults with their members but that money will come and go... the reviews are there for the life of my book.

I am consulting and writing the third book. I'm halfway thru it. The second one is written.

I had one of my families from Des Monies relocate to bring their children to me and another family is putting their house on the market so they can relocate too. I will be caring for their children.

Wow-

Ask a question you get an answer! Thank you so much Nan for taking the time to answer my question.

Are you worried about publishing the next two books?

Well I know they intend to hunt me down so I am prepared BUT I have an attorney now and their real names, addresses, phone numbers, and enough members in their group to get screen shots of any public posts. We will deal with them legally immediately this time.

I also have had my videos reviewed by a child abuse expert (court certified state expert) so I have the proper documentation I need to begin the legal proceedings in their States. One is in Maryland and one in New Mexico. The one in New Mexico has made the most specific threat. We have been working with the Department of Human Services in that State regarding her claim she is affiliated with them. (She is not.) We will pursue her association not her personally as she is representing them in her accusations of abuse. Better to go after the association financially speaking.

They got one attack free. The next one is on them.

Glad to hear you have a plan although I am sorry that you are going through this.

I shouldn't be surprised that you have this situation seemingly under control. I mean, if you can handle a group of toddlers, then a couple of adults throwing a fit should be a cakewalk.

You have a wonderful voice!

He he he

My favorite one is my sister Angel (who is the editor on my books) and I singing Rudolph to my then three year old niece Jordan (she's 23 now and plays the daycare provider on the cover of the book) and the "Reindeer Wisdom" at 2.23 minutes mark.

I was 34 when we recorded it but a WISE 34

We massacred Rudolph but the ending cracked us up when we watched it nearly twenty years later.

Honestly, the above discussion made me revisit the daycare whisperer videos, trying to figure out what I missed? What could one possibly complain about? I'll admit, when I first came here, I didn't always understand Nan's delivery...until I watched her videos. That completely changed my understanding.

So, I searched for "Tori Fees" to find them, and low-and-behold; she sings!

At least you didn't show up at my house in Podunk! Had that happen a couple of weeks ago.
