Q: I had a female relative that was staying im my daughter's room. They are 2 and 6 and the relative started masterbating
They were in separate beds but literally just inches apart. My kid woke up in the middle of the night and i reviewed the camera that is in there room and thats when i saw what she was doing. And what most likely woke up my kid. I think she was on the phone when she was doing that. It disturbs me that she did that within inches away from my kids. Is there any law that was broken because it does not seem right for her to be doing that with my kids there even if they are asleep
A: It is probably a misdemeanor sex offense. If you want the relative arrest and put in jail, then call the police. If not, tell her to knock it off!
A:
more info needed.
you have to decide if you want to fan the flames with a family member. You will pressure from all sides to not pursue. However, once you report and the relative is arrested it will NOT be up to you if you want to drop the charges.
