Good for mom for saving her daughter from
this monster, but I am curious as to why she was at a hotel with him in the first place.

 

[borndem]

My question is the same.

The story strongly implies that he was the mother's boyfriend.

Good job Mom, but you have to check those Sex Offenders Registries when bringing a new man (or woman) into your kids' lives.
