Is 17 considered a minor?
It is in Virginia.
Exactly!
Dad has been judge, jury and executioner of his and his sons “father/son” relationship.
This is dumb beyond belief.
As another freeper said on this thread, he should have held turning him in to the cops over his head and demanded clinical therapy and imposed a litany of other common sense disciplines on him.
You do not “shake” being branded a “sex offender”. It’s a life sentence.
You’re crying over the poor 17 year old that decided to take pictures of a 2 year old and sell them to someone he thought was a pedophile? What about the two year? And it’s definitely going to take this kid and others who hear about it on a different path. It’s your approach of keeping it quiet and sweeping it under the rug that causes this to keep happening more and more to other two year olds
My opinion is that some kids have such a stubborn bent that they won’t listen, and that the filthy sh!theads that still shield their offspring when they become sexual predators preying on children need to be dropped into the depths of the sea chained to the same millstone as their spawn.
Which raises the question, what else has the son viewed or sold in terms of child pornography and what would make him think a fellow classmate would be interested in purchasing the photos unless the classmate is indeed a pedopohile and has shared his stash of photos with this kid.......
Hopefully the cops will be able to confiscate the kid's computer for examination.........
It is considered a minor among the snowflake class. So is 25.
Ping.
Feel free to wade into a swamp not in DC.
The usual Freeper suspects, just being their usual selves worrying about the pain of a sexual predator, and not giving a crap about the two year old victim.

Sending anyone to a ‘shrink’ noes no good whatsoever!
The shrinks are a huge part of the problem.

Not BS. If it ever came out the father knew the pics were there, and did nothing, then the father would be in trouble. In fact, it matters not what the father did or did not do. Once he witnessed the pics, father was in trouble, and HAD to act. Lose job, be forever marked, etc. Do we know if the son was open to quit this, or was he a belligerent son? The son obviously knew right from wrong, but chose to profit from it. Father was right, since son could have blackmailed father for money as well. Crazy.

The answer to your questions depends on the laws of the state, and the age of the perp.

“Therapy” is just a way of legitimizing the behavior.
Therapy is total bunk!

I was thinking of a shrink who'd tell the kid "son,things like that just aren't done.It's very,very wrong...as well as very,very illegal."
Had I been effed up or stupid enough to do something like that the police would have been a better option as my dad would have LITERALLY, physically killed me.

>> “A party line” <<
LOL! haven’t had those for 60 years.
.
>> “He had just taken his cell phone away. It must have been for cause.” <<
B I N G O !

>> “ the police would have been a better option as my dad would have LITERALLY, physically killed me.” <<
Yep!
.
.
But that’s not what shrinks do.
They usually leave the patient with the feeling that it is society that is wrong, but that they have to find a way to conform.
.
That really depends on the training of the shrink.
.
Shrinks are waaay out there these days.
