Ex-wife engaged and he has a son. His son (7), my daughter(7) sharing a bed/bedroom.

My ex-wife and I have a 7 year old daughter which we have split custody.  My ex is now engaged to a man who has a 7 year old son who also has shared custody.  They have decided to co-habitate into a two bedroom apartment.  I fear that my daughter and his son are sharing a bedroom or even worse my daughter's bed.  Are there any laws that are being broken by her actions?  Does this violate the Standard Parenting Clause as listed in our divorce papers? What can I do?

I think it is wrong !! My 3 year old grandaughter was molested by a 5 year old boy. There was no penetration but she was still fondled and told me he had hurt her. They are old enough to do things they shouldn't. If that boy has been exposed to anything sexual then he will be curious and will have opportunity to try out what he has learned on your daughter. I would try to put an end to them sharing not only the same bed but room also. Just my opinion from my previous experience.LOL

If they are sharing the bed together then I think that it's wrong.If they don't have their own children at the same time then they would just be sharing a bed and a bedroom.Then I would be fine with that.I would tell them that if they do have them at the same time then they need to share a bed with their own child .What would it hurt for them to think of their child more then themselves?

it is perfectly legal for them to share a room. You can take issue if they sleep in the same bed at the same time, but if their custody times are not the same - and they just USE the same bed -  but don't share it - there is nothing wrong with that.

i'm not sure about this one.  that is a difficult situation...because if you had two children of opposite sex, it would be ok for them to share a room, right?

not sure how this works with 'stepkids'.
