I have nothing to do with SS at the moment but my 40 year old ex husband is having a relationship with a 23yr old girl. Due to the size of his bank balance it has been going on for a year. My kids - girl 10 boy 16 have regular contact - 5 nights out of 14 with him and from what I can make out she is always there. This is since he moved into a new house a few weeks ago. I have agreed the contact through solicitors - it is not a court order. I cannot afford to go back to solicitors to re arrange this.
Could the SS do anything to help. I have no idea?
It makes me feel sick. My daughter is at a very impressionable age and I and concerned that it is sending all the wrong messages to her. Saying it all OK for this relationship with the huge age gap (18yrs)He has his own place and I know not what goes on. I don't really know what to do.
Do I just have to live with it? Anyone else been here??
Am I being unreasonable, I just don't know..

Misskeithlemon: ha ha!!! Grin and I've got maths a-level!! I actually meant "if she is a LOT younger than you" really, didn't phrase it well, but looking back I should have noticed her son's age and worked out her approximate age!

Twenty three years old? She's two years older than me. She's not a minor, she's not a girl - she is a woman.

Yes you are being unreasonable, and ridiculous. Your attitude is more likely to have a detrimental affect on your children than her age.

Hmm
