Is my mom a pedophile?

Be very careful of the language you use. Too many people throw around terms like "pedophile" not knowing at all what that means.
Pedophilia: the primary or exclusive sexual attraction to PREPUBESCENT children.
Hebophilia: the primary or exclusive adult sexual interest in pubescent individuals approximately 11-14 years old
Ephebophilia: the primary or exclusive sexual attraction to those in later adolescence, approximately 15-19 years old
So, in this case, accusing your mother of being a hebophile is more appropriate. Pedophile, absolutely not!
Okay... you're going to fucking nitpick idgaf what its called... she's a predator
Yeah, I am going to nitpick because if you use the wrong words, you can get sued. It's called libel in print and slander if spoken; either way, it is defamation of character. Your mom may be fucked-up and be a hebophile, but she's not a pedophile and that is considered much worse. So, keep in mind that we, as adults, have a responsibility to be careful about what we say when we make accusations. In fact, Elonis v. United States is a current US Supreme Court Case discussing freedom of speech and threats on the Internet. www.scotusblog.com/.../ Making false defamatory accusations on the Internet is just as bad.
So, yes, while likely your mother is a "predator" (your words), you just need to be careful. I know I sound uoptight and nitpicky, but I am actually trying to protect you.
I'm posting anonymously, on a basically anonymous website... no one knows me or her, you're missing the point of my whole post? I admitt I had no idea there was a difference in names for predators who prey on children based on age...
That's just fucked up, I don't know what to think really.
yeah she is... sorry but yeah there's some creepy pervy shit going on there
Thank you! I tried to even tell the kid dude she's supposed to be your mother figure she's evil.. to me its all so fucking predatory even her mindset when I watch shit about these pedos who claim the kid they molested was actually really mature & they felt a connection to them.. I don't know I'm creeped out
have you met the kid? seen what he's like? but anyways it seems ridiculous that a grown woman who was probably in her 30s right? could be taken advantage of by a 13 year old child. A 13 year old kid who desires sexually a 30+ women... that seems really unlikely. Anyways even if by chance this kid was trying to take advantage of your mom, a grown ass woman knows how to say no if she doesn't consent to whatever stuff they did, sexual or otherwise... looks like she's trying to save face.
*did he seem manipulating? or manipulated?(the kid)
Yes I met him... we talked for years on the phone read the updates... couldn't fit everything in the main box.. he was a bully to me but honestly I felt sympathy for this kid because his whole life he was thrown away & his one supposed mother figure literally isolated him from everyone else & basically made it all him & her all the time even when he tried to date a girl from work (girls his own age) she would sabotage it... there's not enough room on gag to get into the depths of her fuckery
I think he's deeply confused person as a result of this & gets a lot of flack for something that he can't even comprehend
That's really screwed up.. it's good that you aren't like her and know how wrong this is. Hopefully you are living a happy life somewhere far far away from crazy pants
