Taken into care as I think would happen if he had a conviction for violent crime. It just makes me so angryangryangry

Soutra I agree
It beggars belief.
If she lets him stay the children should be taken away from her.

Please bear with me if IABU, how can a mother 1) choose a partner who is a paedophile and 2) prioritise him over her daughters?

Try "listen again to todays BBC Radio4 PM. There was a rather hypothetical discussion about this.

It has only just finished but might be on in a short while. Yesterday's is.

However we will never know, nor should we know, the full circumstances and the reasoning behind this.

If he has to be in the house why not lock him in his room?

Oh for heaven's sake angry

And the mother allows him in the house????

.......under a court order to protect them from their mother's paedophile partner.

Clearly we do not know all the facts of the case, so should not really comment, but I cannot help thinking that the fire hazard here is very serious.

The 2 girls have some sort of monitor device via which they can communicate their need to go to the toilet during the night.
