Even if you are being paranoid it still needs to be checked out.

The situation with your dd is also worrying, has he helped her to sleep before?

Interested in this thread?

my DS is almost 10, DH often lies on the bed next to him, with the lights off, chatting or reading, or DS drops off to sleep whislt DH is on his laptop next to him, my DH being in bed or next to teh bed with the children would not freak me out. also, if DS has had a nightmare, or been ill in the night, DH often will go to him in the night

so that sounds innocent to me

as does what you have described

what is worrying is that you believe he is capable of abusing both your children, which would suggest there is more going on in the background

SoupDragon · 24/04/2009 16:40

I think you are being a bit paranoid - which is not necessarily a bad thing, it's better than being head-in-the-sand.

Do you have a reason to be paranoid? Aside from this and what you found odd with your DD, do you have more reason to suspect your DH is capable of this?

MrsBoo · 24/04/2009 16:41

Why would he pretend to be asleep when presumably he was on the playstation?

I think its all a bit weird - how long has he been their step/dad?

angiebaby78 · 24/04/2009 16:42

i gotta go and do tea, will come back on later, and will look at nspcc website thanks for your advice xxx

how long have you and your dc's been with your dh? is it worth looking him up on that register??

angiebaby78 · 24/04/2009 16:43

just quickly mrs boo..we have been together for 3 years

Doctorskidaddle · 24/04/2009 16:43

sounds worrying to me - I would get advice from NSPC

Lulumama · 24/04/2009 16:43

ok forgive me, but i did a wee search on your name.. you said last month you were about to become a single parent and you have 3 dcs?

MrsBoo · 24/04/2009 16:44

Poor you I am sorry you're having to deal with this all. Hope you have someone in RL you could maybe talk to, but probably not as sometimes its easier asking/talking here anonomously

noddyholder · 24/04/2009 16:47

I think the lying down with your daughter is odd unless she has a sleep problem and you do that regularly.If it feels wrong you need to investigate it.

lulu i was on the brink of ending our realtionship thats correct

StealthPolarBear · 24/04/2009 16:50

agree with lulumama - the worrying thing is that you think there is the potential for something to happen. FWIW I could find DH in both of the situations you describe and it wouldn't set alarm bells ringing at all - the fact they do for you says it all

angiebaby78 · 24/04/2009 16:51

sorry am hiding in the kitchen while kids eat tea, hes just gone out with his mate

jeminthecity · 24/04/2009 16:51

I agree stealthpolar

Lulumama · 24/04/2009 16:53

sorry angie, was a wee bit confused. was there a reason you were going to end things? were you worried about this sort of thing before?

i honestly think that what you have described sounds fairly innocent, it is the fact you beleive he is capable of abusing and is abusing your hcildren and you have another child too.

i would phone the NSPCC at the earliest opportunity and not question the chidlren at the moment

MrsBoo · 24/04/2009 16:55

I think you know more than you're telling us - and you might either have other suspicions or are looking for a good reason to leave him?

Lulumama · 24/04/2009 16:56

thing is, i trust my DH so implicitly and totally ,that finding him next to or in the bed with either DC would never raise a doubt with me. ever.

you clearly don;t .

so there must be other reasons, especially as what you have posted don't particularly ring alarm bells IMO

angiebaby78 · 24/04/2009 16:58

lulu i am suspicious of him since the incidence with my dd1 so am perhaps a little sensitive to situations that others would percieve as innocent. Our marriage has encountered a lot of problems with his lies and deception so there are obvious trust issues running underneath the normal day to day living.

Dumbledoresgirl · 24/04/2009 16:59

Any chance your partner really was asleep and your ds was wanking? You said he moved quickly. Maybe he pulled his trousers up at the front and couldn't get them up at the back in time. There really could be any number of things happening here. I think the fact that you think something dodgy is happening suggests you have more grounds to doubt your partner than maybe you have told us here?

Lulumama · 24/04/2009 17:00

does your DD have sleep issues that would necessitate him being next to her? perhaps she was crying and oyu did not hear and he went to soothe her?

if there is a history of lies and deception that is a different thing

but things must have been better to give it another go?

one way or another this will finish your relatinship, if he is being abusive, he is finished, .if he is not, he should walk as you can;t trust him

jeminthecity · 24/04/2009 17:00

Lies and deceptions don't mean paed though, do they?
