I saw this on the news today and well, it turned my stomach.
To sum the story up....
In Australia a father and his adult daughter have embarked on a romantic relationship that has resulted in the birth of a daughter (and granddaughter!). Although this child is healthy, the "couple" have already lost one child to a congenital heart disease.
The father wasn't around when his adult daughter/partner (are you confused yet?) was growing up but they soon developed feelings for each other after being reunited in 2000.
To me this is wrong on so many levels... what the heck is the father thinking? That is his CHILD, just because she is an adult and he didn't raise her doesn't change the fact that he has moral responsibilities towards her and what about the poor child that has resulted from this (imo) disgusting form of abuse? Now that the story is out in the open, what kind of life is that poor little girl going to have? People don't forget stories like this and she is going to suffer years of torture from unsympathetic bullies.
What do you think?
