These incidents (there were more than 40 admitted offenses) were committed many years ago but sofaras we know this man has never received treatment of any kind. He is a known user and abuser of marijuana and is known to have inappropriate behavior with his grown daughter - standing in the doorway while she bathes, going to the bathroom with the door open, etc. I am very uncomfortable with him baby sitting my 14 month old grandson. I need to find some articles to read that impact upon this issue written by reputable psychiatrists or psychologists. Anyone know of any or have any experience with this type of problem?

This man is not a one-time offender who made a mistake. His has a history, a pattern of behavior. Over forty offenses indicates that this is not something that he is going to change any time soon. Besides committing indecent exposure, he has also engaged in inappropriate behavior with his daughter and uses drugs. Your grandson is probably his prime target for sexual abuse, because he is young and cannot tell anyone. Get your grandson away from this man immediately.

I got a citation for indecent exposure once, by accident. On a very hot day I spontaneously went swimming in a lake wearing my bra and panties and when I got back to the beach, an officer was waiting for me.
But this guy has 40 incidents and watches his grown daughter bathe? Very yucky.
Seriously, you babysit until appropriate child care can be found.
Also notify the police if he contracting himself out as a babysitter. There are laws to running a babysiting business and he is breaking one of them by having a criminal history.

what sort of children do u have? do they have no idea about what they are exposing their child to??i m sorry for being so rude, but a socio-path is a socio-path.
Socio-paths are individuals with this disorder have little regard for the feeling and welfare of others. As a clinical diagnosis it is usually limited to those over age 18. It can be diagnosed in younger people if the they commit isolated antisocial acts and do not show signs of another mental disorder.
Antisocial Personality Disorder is chronic, beginning in adolescenceand continuing throughout adulthood. There are ten general symptoms:
not learning from experience
no sense of responsibility
inability to form meaningful relationships
inability to control impulses
lack of moral sense
chronically antisocial behavior
no change in behavior after punishment
emotional immaturity
lack of guilt
self-centeredness
People with this disorder may exhibit criminal behavior. They may
not work. If they do work, they are frequently absent or may quit
suddenly. They do not consider other people's wishes, welfare or
rights. They can be manipulative and may lie to gain personal
pleasure or profit. They may default on loans, fail to provide child
support, or fail to care for their dependents adequately. High risk
sexual behavior and substance abuse are common. Impulsiveness, failure to plan ahead, aggressiveness, irritability, irresponsibility,and a reckless disregard for their own safety and the safety of others are traits of the antisocial personality.
Socioeconomic status, gender, and genetic factors play a role.
Males are more likely to be antisocial than females. A family history of the disorder puts one at higher risk.
There are many theories about the cause of Antisocial personality
Disorder including experiencing neglectful parenting as a child, low levels of certain neurotransmitters in the brain, and belief that
antisocial behavior is justified because of difficult circumstances.
Psychotherapy, group therapy, and family therapy are common
treatments. The effects of medical treatment are inconclusive.
Unfortunately, most people with Antisocial Personality Disorder
reject treatment. Therefore, recovery rates are low.
you need to protect the child.

If all that is true, then yes, i would think your grandson is in danger and needs to go somewhere else where you can do background checks on the people who would be watching him. I can't understand how people can leave their children in a knowingly dangerous situation.
To babysit my own grandchildren and get help from the state for the food, ect, i had to have a background check. Also had to have one where i currently live. So PLEASE try to talk to your grandsons parent(s) and convience them to do what is in the best interest of that child. What would they say to that child god forbidden something did happen and they could have prevented it???

When it comes to kids go with your gut instinct. If someone does not feel right to you; then it is your duty to find someone who feels right. A 14 month old cannot protect themselves. You must. Whether or not he does or doesn't do inappropriate things; you might not know...but if you are seeing red flags then you must act and get your grandson in the care of somebody else.

It absolutely never ceases to amaze me. And if I live to be 100 I'm sure I'll make this statement again.
Are you DUMB? You have to come to YA to get a group of total strangers to tell you to get your grandson out of danger. I'm totally floored, what are you waiting for the 41 st offence? It'll be your grandson. Man, that kid just ain't going to make it.
And for the next babysitter in the have you ever, killed, maimed or injured anyone section-if they check mark it as yes, don't hire them.
