Well, she'll do exactly the same thing to her parents. Only then she'll be pissed at everyone and trying extra hard to hide things.

Not if her parents set up monitoring utilities on her computer. ;)

Eh, I'd say tell them.
 
Well, here's an update if you're interested. If not, keep on movin along.

I called up my sister last night and asked her to come over to my house to pick something up. When she got over i told her that i needed to talk to her about her daughter a minute.

I asked her if jane (not her real name...) had a boyfriend and she said yes.
Then i asked if she knew how old the boyfriend was. She said 14 and why was i asking.

i straight up told her what i saw and she asked me how i knew the boy was 19.
i told her that i checked out his profile and that it said he was 19. I asked her what Jane's boyfriends name was and the name that she gave me was NOT the one on the guys profile.

my sister then asked me if Jane's chats were being logged and i told her yes.
Jane had the option to retain chat logs turned on in her MSN.

My sister calls me back up 30 mins later and asks me where she can find them. After telling her where she starts reading to me some of the stuff she is finding and all i gotta say is there was some stuff that was definitely innapropriate for a 13 year old.
 
EDIT: Ok good, I think you definitely did the right thing in telling her mom. :up:

So anyways, over the weekend my sister asked me to look at my nieces computer since it wasnt working anymore and hadnt been for like a month.

After about 3 hours i got the computer back up and running and back on their broadband connection. Just as soon as her computer boots up her MSN pops up and someone on the other end says "what's goin on sweet thing? Cant wait to see you again."

Normally this wouldnt bother me cept that my neice is only 13. So i just check out this persons profile quick and see that it's a 19 year old college kid from town...

At this point i just shut her MSN down and walk away. I tell my sister that my neices computer is workin again and i go home.

Two days later this feeling like i have to tell my sister something is eating me up. Should i tell her and her husband?

Do what my friend and I did.

Set up a fake meeting, bring a baseball bat with nails in it and have a long conversation w/ that boy and how it is best for his health not to contact her agayyne.

Bingo. This is why monitoring the online activities of your kids is not only smart, but the responsible thing to do.
 
This thread is so embarrassing.
The geek tried to couch it in some kind of "dilemma", to justify making a thread about it...with a POLL even!:eek:

He was going to tell them all along, he just wanted to say, "D00dz! Guess what!!! I caught my niece flirting with an older man on the intardwebz! LOL BUSted, lol."

:rolleyes:

I'm glad it all worked out. I guess you did the right thing. :up:

But has your neice found out that her mother knows yet?

You should have told her right then and there while the guy was on the messenger. It would have been like a mini Dateline bust but this time the girl is real and the parents are real.
 
Thats f***ed up........My tummy hurts just thinking about it. Hope the ass hole gets whats coming to him....thats right, angry emails!
 
I mean, how old are YOU!? I would have told the fkr right there on IM to back the fk off or something bad would happen . . . . she's 13 for god's sake!

anyway, DEFINITELY tell your sis and bro-in-law ASAP!
 
^didn't mean to sound like a dick or anything, btw; and can now see that you did what you should've done in the 1st place . . .

NOT RESPECTING A CHILD'S RIGHT TO PRIVACY, ESPECIALLY FOR A CHILD IN THEIR TEENS IS A SIGN THAT YOU DON'T RESPECT YOUR CHILD. CHILDREN AT THAT AGE NEED THEIR PRIVACY.

Agreed. Why not confront your neice about it? Treat her like an adult. That is a rough age and you could risk alienating her forever. Ask her about it, as Husker mentioned...it could be a bot. Ask her, if she is doing something she shouldn't, let the parents know.

They already went through the chat logs and unless that 13 year old was talking to Pervy The PervBot, I'd say she was talking to a rather real pedophile.
