With regards to contact, I have been asked to withdraw contact until this is resolved.
Oh really, that's very convenient, and who told you that?
Absolutely ridiculous0 -
If the police decide not to prosecute that's because the described behaviour didn't happen!
I'm not excusing the behaviour, I'm saying what happened isn't what the OP describes, because if it was, the police WOULD BE TAKING ACTION.
Your last sentence basically says that your own self righteousness is superior to the authorities view point and therefore it's ok to deny contact. That's just sick.
It's not your job to 'punish' your ex. Not the OPs to punish hers. Get a grip of yourselves.
Not at all, just risk averse and he is clearly a risk. At best, very best, he has questionable judgement, at worst.....
In the OP's shoes I would also make sure the parents of the other kids were aware of the situation, because I would certainly want to know if one of my kids had been exposed to that sort of stuff by an adult, especially the father of one of their friends.
There are simply no excuses, and it is not about punishment, it is about what is acceptable behaviour for a parent.0 -

This is one of the things that persuaded me to report it. I don't know these other young people, but I am hoping that SS contact their families if they deem necessary. I will ask them if that's their plan.0 -

This is exactly the kind of case that ruins children's relationships with their NRP.
And to clarify, had you said the police were taking action, I'd say spot on, no contact. The people who deal with this on a daily basis decided there was no case to answer.
But you decided that a young man and his father having a bit of a joke and a laugh (perhaps pushing the boundaries as can happen both with teenagers and NRPs. How many NRPs let their child stay up late, eat too much chocolate and drink too much pop when they're younger. So a father trying to relate to his child's current interests, which are teenage sense of humour and girls, means no contact.)
You know what, all the other posters can post all the nonsense they want about this, there is one very important fact, above all others.
That the report you made, has been followed through by the relevant authorities, who have decided that there is no issue. And yet YOU think it's still not right. You must be right, all those other people are wrong.
"If I tell people he's a pervert and a !!!!!phile then they'll support me" - You played the game and you lost, but yet you still win but stopping contact.
Pathetic.0 -

The majority of the ones he named a month ago have now been banned. Maybe a coincidence, possibly not.0 -

And if not, you'll no doubt do it yourself... After all you know best....0 -
