Did he abuse children that are yours? And if so were charges filed on that case - giving your child official status as a victim?
Are you saying that all the above is true and because he is a juvenile, you will not be notified? --Libby

Yes, some; and absolutely.
Now some of you know 'why him staying in our home' could NOT be a consideration.

Probably because he's a minor, he won't have to register as a sex offender. Which is terribly sad and frightening!--q's mom

As a minor, he IS registered as a sex offender. However, in this state, his status as such will not/can not be known, unless someone in his area is a day care provider, involved with the school system, etc. Otherwise, it's not as if one could look up his name on the official website, as one could do if he were only a few years older and an adult!!!!
Thank you to those who've supported my point and given encouragement. This was NOT an easy thing to do-----to relinquish OR to post this on the forum. I hope a good life for him; but I have my doubts. However, those don't matter now; we only want our family to know his initial whereabouts. Being a minor should NOT give him overall protection at the risk of hurting more children, that's my gripe.
Sincerely,
Linny
