Overnight company of the opposite sex

[Bloopy]

Her new boyfriend is 67 year old. She's 32. I know that there is nothing inherently wrong with that, but I think it's kinda ooky (for lack of a better word.)

Okay, "ooky"

Starting to get more mom-bashing, tread lightly

You still sound level-headed for a Wicked Step Mother

I personally don't have a problem with it. I lived with someone I wasn't married to, with my daughter after my divorce.

And I don't doubt that it has something to do with the fact that "Trey" has a penis and the girls don't.

Way different than controlling. It’s just dangerous and stupid to move in with someone you’ve known for a short time, especially around kids.

Still backing off was smarter than pushing Mom to troll the sex offender registry for her next beau.

Ya, I know its different, but apparently she doesn't. Every time I offer her a suggestion about anything I'm either a) calling her stupid b) trying to control her or c) calling her a bad mother.

And, I do all the checking of criminal records and the sex offender registry for anyone I know thats going to be around my daughter. Some people have told me that I'm going a little too far, but the way I see it is as long as there is a way to know if the people around her have a criminal history or a history of being a sex offender it is my responsibility to find out.

Sorry, didn't mean to mom bash. Oh, the stories I could tell! But I won't, because you are right, I don't need to bash her.

I try to be level-headed where she is concerned. I don't interfere with her relationship with the kids, although I don't really need to anyways, as she's done a fine job of screwing that up all on her own. (Whoops, was that mom-bashing? )

I absolutely do not get in the middle of her and hubby's communication. Don't want the headache or the stress of that.

But I do listen to hubby when he talks about it, and I try to support his position. That's why I posted this. I'm a little more legally versed than he is.

If reasonable people are telling you this, maybe, it is time to dial it down a notch.

It all sounds cool here but maybe others are seeing more.

Well, I don't see how there can be any harm to anyone else if I check a registry (there for this purpose) to make sure my daughter isn't around sex offenders. Really, when it comes to the criminal record, I tend to check that for my own entertainment. See what kind of stupid stuff they did when they were younger.

I don't see anything wrong with checking the sex offender registry. If hubby finds out mom's new boyfriend's name, I'm sure he will check, too. You just never know.

About once a month, I check our local sex offender registry. I'm glad I do, too. Not long ago, I checked it and found out that a sex offender convicted in Texas of raping a 13 year old girl had moved in next door.

We were able to have the sheriff force him to move though. We live less than 1000 feet from an elementary school.

And, um, yeah, TCool, I snoop too in my Mother Hen capacity
