AIBU?
Babysitter having sex?!

This is a long story, I'll try to keep it short.
On Wednesday night, me and DP went out and asked a family friend's DD (17) to babysit for our DS's (7 and 5), we said her boyfriend could come round as well as they are both lovely teens.
Everything seemed fine, until today.
We have security cameras in/around our house and DP was checking them as there has been a group of teenagers causing nuisance around our neighbours' house over the past couple of weeks, so was seeing if any damage was caused, when he called me over.
On the camera, we saw the babysitter and her boyfriend kissing, then beginning to get undressed before disappearing into another room, and coming out some time later. I can only assume they had sex in there, and I feel quite disgusted and as though our home has been violated.
DS's were fast asleep upstairs, so no concern there, but I just don't know what to do. WWYD?

Sorry, I feel I should clarify so I don't look like a weird stalker!
We have several filming the garden/porch area, and one that films the porch is at an angle that it films the porch and also shows the utility corridor through the glass doors.
Not actually inside the house!

you have CCTV inside your house??
I think i would mention to the babysitter that you have the CCTV and that maybe next time it would be better for her boyfriend not to help babysit.
let her know without saying and embarrassing her that you are aware of what happened.
not much else you can do really. I hope the cleared up after themselves

Isn't there an issue re filming people when they don't know? I realise it's a bit hazy as she isn't an employee but I think legally as well as ethically it's a tricky one (unless she knew about camera which sounds like didn't).
Also IMHO am not surprised - I can't say I would
Have been any better at that age(although see why you are appalled). But kids presumably know nothing about it. It may be better to say nothing an find another sitter .

Bluddy - you have totally taken this out of context. I didn't 'secretly' film them - security cameras for the porch show part of the utility corridor; an area that they didn't have any reason to be in anyway, considering it's on the other side of the house.
