Mum sleeps NAKED with her 16-year-old son… and wants to know if it’s ‘wrong’
Some have suggested the relationship sounds incestuous, while others asked if it was a joke
A MUM who still sleeps NAKED in a bed with her 16-year-old son has been criticised online, after taking to Quora to ask if it’s wrong.
Dozens of people have commented on the , with many questioning why the woman doesn’t invest in some pyjamas – and others asking why they need to share a room at all.
In the UK, 16 is the age at which someone can legally have sex – and concerns the strange sleeping arrangement could lead to an incestuous relationship have also been raised.
Shannon Giles said: “From a US perspective it's pretty f***ed up (other cultures may view the issue differently).
“If your son were to casually mention to someone (friend, teacher, relative) that you and he share a bed and that you also are naked this person could potentially cause a LOT of legal issues for you.
“The Child Protection Agency wouldn't think it was harmless, nor would a judge, nor any psychiatrist.
“You could possibly be arrested for child indecency and put into prison and be forced to register as a sex offender.
“Even if it's not a sexual act – is it really worth all that? Just put some damn jammies on or sleep in separate rooms.
“Also, please take your teenager’s feelings into consideration. You wanting to sleep naked in the bed with him could scar him for life.”
Chic Mendoza agreed, adding: “I think you're 9 years (or so) too late in asking this question.
“I hope he grows up to be a fine young man! Don’t distort his values!… Please put clothes on.”
Christopher Richards questioned why the mum had to sleep in the same bed as a child over the age of 10, and pondered whether the boy had health issues.
He also proposed the idea of two single beds, if separate rooms are not an option for the family.
Christopher added: “It does appear to have over-tones of incest.”

And Ropes Aberque added: “(It’s not wrong) if you don't mind the term ‘Sexual Predator’ with a description that states ‘female paedophile w/ aggravated incest 16 & under’ under your name, picture, address and place of employment on the Sex Offender Registry and on your Driver’s License for rest of your life.

While others felt there would have been a harsher reaction if a dad had been sleeping with his daughter in this way.
