Neighbours’s 15yo has boy in her bedroom

[BillywilliamV]

Both parents at work. She’s meant to be studying for her GCSE’s, a boy turned up at 9ish this morning and has been in the house ever since. Her bedroom window is open and they’re definitely not studying! Should I mind my own business or tell her mother? (I’m not deliberately listening but I’m gardening so outside)

Not your kids, not your house, not your business!

I'd be uncomfortable with this as well, because of the girl's age. But it's hard to know what (if anything) to do about it. I guess next time I talked to the neighbour I might find a way to drop in a reference to their daughter's boyfriend... but it depends on your relationship with your neighbour. It's a difficult one.

Are you basically saying you can hear them having sex? If so I’d mention it simply as she is below the age of consent.

Unless you have concerns that he's a lot older or she's being abused then I'd be inclined to leave it. It is below the age of consent but let's face it, 15 year olds have sex. Not quite sure why some people have to be quite so rude in their replies when you're asking for advice.

Oh for goodness sake were you never a teenager?! MYOB.

It all depends how close you are. Do you normally get involved in her business, I'd want to know just to be safe.

I can’t believe how everyone is saying to mind your own business, I’m actually shocked. If that was my daughter I would like to know , you’re friend with the mother , and the girl is 15 not 20. Sadly these days concern is seen as being nosy .

I would say don't mention it unless the boy is obviously a lot older.

Fucking hell.

Leave them alone

Well if they are noisy I would clear my throat or make some noise but then again I am the person who mentioned to my neighbours I was calling the landlord out about my air brick letting all the noise in from the road she would stand out the front for ages making personal phone calls out of her children's hearing but i could hear everything and i mean everything

I think that given you're friends with her mother it would be appropriate to mention, or strongly hint, that she had a boy round for the day. Most parents of 15 year old would want to know this.

I’d want to know. Quite apart from what they were doing I wouldn’t want her to fail her GCSEs because she’s distracted by a boy. If I were her mum I would suddenly be working at home a lot or making her revise at school / buying a video doorbell.

Why are people swearing at OP and calling her name's? The posters sound very full of themselves and quite nasty and the usual 'bundle' mentality. They sound far more judgemental than OP who is at least concerned, you don't know her, so a bit of respect wouldn't be amiss.
