itsimpossible: would anyone be willing to spend 3 weeks in prison for such a serious offense?


I don't think so and we don't want that for you pedal.

itsimpossible: legal or not, a 13 yo is still a child and parents will be upset...I never had kids. (I mean I'm not a father)



I think that many parents disagree these laws.

equiya: oh no. was she aware that was going on, that her young son was being abused by her live-in lover


I have not spoken to her in many years, and it will offer no solace
to do so right now.

. I'm so sorry you are going through the pain and mental anguish over it,... As a parent you say ,what could I have done to prevent this, these are normal reactions to have,..I do not know the circumstances of your wife and I'm sure she is living with the pain of it too,.....and I do hope in time things with heal for the sake of you all and your lovely son.teddybear

Ask a parent or grandparent whose child has been violated.

Also disturbing are the parents who turn their head knowing that their child is being violated. The emotional abandonment of a child by his/her parent, who should move heaven and hell to protect their child...can't be put into words.

Kaybee50: Her body, her choice.
What 2 consensual adults do is their business.

But I must ask, do you have an 18 year old daughter?
What would be your thought to 50+ year old men seeking out her company?
I would lock her in her room and not let her out...seriously what could you do? she is an adult...what would you do?

jac379: Do you mind me asking why you can't look your ex in the eyes, RS?

Also, do you think it helped your child/children that you beat this abuser and if so, how?

I realise this is a painful subject and I'm not going to quibble if you feel you can't answer. I'm interested in the consequences of how parents react on behalf of abused children. As KB has mentioned, turning a blind eye can be devastating, but I'm also wondering about other reactions.


Ask me. I have only known for two weeks. I contemplated doing serious
physical harm to him in the rage I was feeling, but that lasted half
an hour. It is the guilt I have been dealing with that is tough.
My Ex and her Lover were and still are Alcoholics, so it was the
wrong atmosphere for a seven year old in the first place. The guilt
I feel is, I could not get custody due to the sixty hour weeks I was
working(advised by my Lawyer). I knew full well that this is wrong
place for a child. They even neglected my Cat that they took(who i
later picked up outside, and he lived until 18). The original thread
is, should a Man in his twenties date a fifteen year old?. He asks
this with his tongue in his cheek. My answer still is No.

pedalguy59: Were you the Female in this scenario? Just a guess, as you are a young
Grandmother.

Btw, over here you can legally be a grandmother at 33 years old. I wonder if me not fitting the grandmotherly stereotype impacted upon your question.

When your daughter was 18, you would've been comfortable and supportive of your mates meeting your daughter for dating?

I really do not know what a grandmother stereotype is, and as for
yourself, I would certainly not put you in a stereotype category.grin

I always find it a bit difficult to commebnt when questions like this arise,....for my father started "courting my mother" when she was 15 and he was 26,....and marreid at 27/16. Four children and 53 years of marriage before his passing 8 years ago. So, the first scenario is why I was born,....

My parents started courting at a young age as well, 60 years of happy marriage. I do think that times have changed drastically and courtship isn't what it was then. They were innocent times

I was discussing this with my daughter yesterday. She tells me there's no such thing as courtship anymore..in fact, she asked me what it is. I'm sad for her that she'll never experience it sad flower
