Do you consider this child abuse?

Yes. Just because he didn't touch the child, doesn't mean it wasn't abuse. What bothers me even more is the fact her mom didn't stop him. That is absolutely horrible, I have a 5 & 6 year old and when they get in trouble and I take a toy (that I plan on giving back) it is the end of the world for them. Also, the next step is that he will hit her, grab her, and worse. If you got the creep vibe from him then there is no telling what he would do. And so what she walked in on them, first they should have locked the door, but sex is natural, so now she may get a complex that what she saw was bad and dirty. I really hope her mom steps in and buys her new stuffed animals and tells the jerk to get lost, but from my experience these types of mom's could care less. If you have to, step in, I don't mean literally but call 1-800-4-A-CHILD (1-800-422-4459), you don't have to give your name, you can just report the address and that you believe there may be abuse there by the mom's b/f. I am really glad that you noticed and that you took the time to question it. Child abuse can be stopped if people like you continue to watch out for it.

Yes most definitely child abuse. Although it is not physical it is mental and emotional I would be willing to bet it is just a matter of time before the physical starts if it hasn't already. Every parent has their kid walk in on them at least one time. No biggy but it should have been for her mother to sit down and explain to her that she needs to knock and wait for permission to come in rather than just barging in. If her mother allowed her boyfriend to do this to her daughter she is just as guilty as the boyfriend of abuse.I have to agree with you the guy sounds like a creep and the little girl needs some one to speak up for her before it's too late.

This is appalling.. first of all, I want to know why you are asking this question? I think your connection with this is perhaps a great deal closer than the 'friend of a friend' line.... you seem more interested in your own dislike of this person than what he did to the child.. 'keep this jerk away from me'??? How about ' keep this jerk away from the poor child'?? And why the unnescessary info about what the child witnessed? Sorry, but if you ARE concerned about this poor kid, then you would be doing a lot more about it than you are.. and the MOTHER of this child is as guilty as he is,, and with people like you just standing back and doing nothing, then the little girl is in BIG trouble... if you DO care, don;t waste time writing things like this,, get in touch with Social Services NOW and tell them..

If you have some kind of concrete proof that this happened then you should report him. This is child abuse. Creating a world for the child in which she feels insecure and unsafe is abusive. Unfortunately, without evidence, reporting him wouldn't do very much good.

YES! It is considered psychological abuse. If her mom knows about it and had done nothing I think she's unfit to raise a child. That man is an idiot and has some deep rooted issues of his own. I wouldn't want to be around him either. Bright Blessings...~M~

Yes definitely, not physical abuse but emotional for sure. That kind of thing can be very traumatizing to a small child.

I dont know for sure, but that seems like mental and emotional abuse in my opinion. That is horrible and i have to say that that fella needs his @$$ whipped and the floor mopped with his face.

I think you could consider that mental or emotional abuse. And that guy sounds like a jerk.

Yes it could also be consider as a threat to like hey this is what I'm gonna do to you so the Mom needs to leave that dumb ***

I am not going to finish reading this.Children deserve to be love and given attention.Both the couple are abusing the poor child.And you do have the right report this.it is of-cause abuse.
