Hello Louisa:

I'm sorry to hear about the unflattering Facebook group created about you.

You have reported it to Facebook, right? If so--you must keep at them, because unless you're the creator of the group, you cannot delete it.

Do you know who might have created the site? How can I say this diplomatically... Do you have any enemies at school? I ask this, because if you have a good suspicion on who might have created this website, getting the school involved might add leverage to have it removed.

Unfortunately--the flip-side of this is that if the school gets involved, so might your parents.

If you don't want to get your parents involved; your only recourse is to keep writing to Facebook and let them no, in no uncertain terms that this group:

- Violates Facebook's community standards
- Is defamatory and damaging your reputation
- Is libelous and/or slanderous (this is very important)

Unfortunately--without gettinng your school and or parents involved, that's about all you can do as a juvenile (I'm guessing you are under 18).

Again--keep bugging Facebook, and good luck.
