The community is listed on booking.com for rentals so that would make sense.I wonder if there’s a lot of Disney rentals there and that’s why.

Shady sublet situation?I wonder if there’s a lot of Disney rentals there and that’s why.
Back in the day, we referred to it as "Going Postal"!So, there's no mail delivery there, then they would have to get a PO Box at the post office? I'd snap, lol. I had to get a PO Box for a while b/c my teenage daughter was taking detention notices from school out of the mailbox. Don't recommend. It's a pain!
Yes, that's why. We owned a townhome in a resort that was mostly short term rentals. We rented it out when not using it and had to get mail at the main lobby office mailroom. They are gated communities with a lot of vacation renters. This lady's is similar and not far from where we owned. It's a resort community that our realtor showed us as well. There were folks in our resort who lived there full time. Many like it because of the amenities and resort style living. Ours had a bar, restaurant, lazy river, arcade, gym, pool, slide, hot tub, ice cream parlor, play ground....etc. Maintenance free living too.I wonder if there’s a lot of Disney rentals there and that’s why.
You stay aware, you research signs of abuse, talk to your kids....pay attention. When my oldest boy was a young teen he was working with a good friend. There was another guy in the picture that took a "fatherly" role towards my son. NOPE, my kid had a Dad, everyone assured me this guy was fine but my hair was standing up. Contact ended. I wasn't taking Any chances. I've been told i think everyone is a predator, not true, I just pay attention and don't take chances with my kids. My intuition guides me.And, general question: how does someone avoid bringing such a predator into their homes? He had no record.
When I was buying my house the realtor said In Florida most newer communities have mailbox hubs to save on gas for the post office. Even high end communities do this now. My home is in an old neighborhood but didn't have a mailbox because it used to be rented out. The previous owner required renters to get a PO at the post office. It's USPSI wonder if there’s a lot of Disney rentals there and that’s why.
He had no record but he had a ton of red flags IMO. No car of his own, I don't recall he ever lived on his own just roommate and parents. Like a failure to launch situation. I'd suggest getting to know his friends, they talk and tend to spill the embarrassing things during social outings. Get to know the family and feel out the dynamic's there. Make plans for the future, something more permanent than life partner if there are children involved. Scour the social media like a sleuth of the person you are bringing around your child. Observe with unbiased eyes how this new person interacts with your child/ren. Date for an extended amount of time (years) and see if he is really a steady guy before inviting someone in to a family home with under age children. Set and maintain boundaries in the beginning. Just a few that come to mind. Lastly if there is a tiny thought in the back of your mind that something is off Listen To It.The SA went on for years. If the Mom didn't know, how does that happen? She seemed so loving towards him in their interviews. And, general question: how does someone avoid bringing such a predator into their homes? He had no record.

It's not just purchase. Being in possession of child *advertiser censored* is a serious crime so if he distributed the images - they are all charged with sexual crimes.Ugh to think someone might have purchased his videos of her… ugh.
They may have communicated during the day and she already knew he dropped her off - because he texted or called her.I keep wondering about this, too, because wouldn't SS be your first call before calling the police, if he was supposed to drop her off at school and you were at work all day? I would immediately call him to verify he dropped her off and there wasn't some weird anomaly like she got sick on the ride to school and he took her back home and forgot to tell me or something. I feel like that would be a really reasonable and obvious step to take before calling 911, just to make sure I wasn't panicking for no reason.
I think SS was a master manipulator. He friended Maddie, got along great with her, bought her tamogachis, taught her to paint etc. I think JS was lonely and vulnerable and saw a man that loved her daughter. Im sure its wonderful for a single mom to find someone who gets along so well with her kid. She can overlook his immaturity, lack of employee etc.The SA went on for years.

Her comforting him seemed very unnatural, awkwardThe SA went on for years. If the Mom didn't know, how does that happen? She seemed so loving towards him in their interviews. And, general question: how does someone avoid bringing such a predator into their homes? He had no record.
"Set and maintain boundaries" is such a good one. I tell all of my young female relatives and friends to set some kind of boundary with a new person they're talking to, right away. Just something minor like "I can't hang out on Sunday afternoons because that's when I always go shopping with my Mom and Grandma" and just see how they react. You can tell so much about how a person is going to be down the line with you by their response. Narcissists and abusers tend to bristle at any boundaries and immediately try to push back against them, IMO. It's so important to take off the rose colored glasses and watch for danger signs like you said. IMO, MOO, etc., etc.He had no record but he had a ton of red flags IMO.

It’s her fricken daughter, not his. It should be the other way around. But yeah, neither would win any acting awards for that performance, unless it was the Razzies “Worst Screen Combo” award.Her comforting him seemed very unnatural, awkward
Yea, there are times when things just don't feel right and we need to take charge. I also had a neighbor, friendly guy, we talked a lot when outside, he and husband helped with house project etc. He also came to borrow stuff from me as soon as my husband went to work at night, which I didn't appreciate. There was something off with him. My husband left my young daughter there one day when he ran a 15 minute errand and I literally FREAKED OUT on him. Husband didn't get it but assured me it would Never happen again. I have neighbors i trust as well as friends my kids stayed with. Some people i just got bad vibes from.Proud of you.
My oldest was two when some neighbors wanted to assume a grandparently role and I shut that right on down and wasn't playing. I don't care how I came off I had sirens in my head going off and like you said Contact ended.
I think she knew, maybe worse, because shock and denial can lead to absolute rage when confronted with the truth. MOOI think SS was a master manipulator.

I really hope she didn't know about the SA, I think she knew he killed Maddie . But since it seems like she covered for him the only reason that makes sense to me is that she knew about the SA and was covering for both of them. MOO. Unless she was literally in shock and denial
No one was allowed to check on my sleeping children. Most people wouldn't, any men that wanted to...NOPE. Not even uncles. I think Good men know boundaries and whats inappropriate. A good man won't put himself in a situation to be falsely accused. I taught my son the same"Set and maintain boundaries" is such a good one.

Here ya go. I think I'm getting the hang of reddit as I've only been on it a couple of times. I've been able to find a few posts y'all have mentioned if I have the correct words to search for.Sorry posting link must not work. It's a post from a while ago where the person using Sustinet name, mentions having to snoop on step daughters social media, as a cousin had told he and the mother that someone was trying to contact her on Roblox inappropriately
