AIBU to think that this sentence is an utter nonsense

[Busyworkingmum71]

And that social services should be involved. If this goes on in a public place wtf is going on at home? Those poor kids.

YANBU. A more meaningful sentence would be "... this sentence is an utter nonsense".

CotedAzure, your superiority really shines through.

I read that earlier. Having sex in front of their children imo is abuse. The children should be removed from them. Never mind the whole public place aspect.

Yeah, definitely agree that if they 'accidentally' do this when they're out shopping then they're not going to care about their DC seeing stuff at home are they?

And a very bizarre sentence, to me anyway. I thought letting your (very young) DC have contact with anything inappropriate sex wise was one of the flags SS look out for.

I read this and was gobsmacked. I would hope there is more going on with SS.

Jeez! social services should def be involved.
How fucking bizarre, it's like the authorities are more offended about the public place issue.

To be fair there are probably restrictions regarding what the newspaper is allowed to report and there is probably more to this than has been covered here. The court reporter would only be able to include information given by the judge during sentencing in this story.

SS may well be involved (I would say it seems likely) but that couldn't really be reported by the papers unless involvement by SS was actually part of the judge's sentencing. The parents still have a right to privacy despite committing this crime so there will be information the papers couldn't include.

The most bizarre thing I've read in a long time. In public and in front of your kids. Some serious boundary issues of what is and isn't acceptable behaviour.

When I read the article my jaw dropped to the floor, I then read the papers at MILS house and said, where are Social services? If this goes on in public with their children around I don't want to hazard a guess at what the kids see at home...

I can't honestly believe this. I feel so, so sorry for those children.
