If it was in YOUR home, out of site with private things then you have nothing to feel ashamed of - most guys look at porn.

I'm not clear if it's the mum or niece taking the pee - either way it's unacceptable. At 10 she should know not to go through your things, my 9 year old certainly knows that would be wrong!

Stand your ground and tell the mother her daughter behaved unacceptably and neither are welcome until they both learn to behave appropriately in someone else's home.

Robbie, I wouldn't worry about it and would laugh it off. She found one magazine, not a stash, not a pile of sex toys or a DVD. One magazine does not make you deviant!

If my daughter had found something like that in someone elses' house I probably would make a jokey comment that these things should be hidden a bit better and leave it at that. Loobie's right, you are entitled to buy whatever you like and a 10 year old shouldn't be pawing through your stuff.

You have to learn about things one way or the other. Just shrug it off, they are probably jealous they never had a chance to look at it.

If they start off again just tell them "it's getting boring now!"

Does the mother know that her daughter goes round people's houses and goes through their private things? I bet that wasn't even mentioned. If they take the p*** out of you, just turn around and say "I think it's disgraceful that you think it's acceptable for your daughter to go through people's private things. She's not exactly a baby."

Yes I agree with Anonymous 59615 - it's not a joke - the 10 year old went through your things - how dare she? She sounds very ill brought up if she and her mother think that's an acceptable way to behave in someone else's house.

What if you had gone to your private things and found something missing or damaged? I'm sure if she had rummaged through other teenagers' private things (I assume that you are at least teenage, if not older) then she would have found a lot worse than one naughty mag. This sort of thing really annoys me because it will make her think she has the right to go through anyone's private papers - and some things are confidential, not in a sexual sense, but in a legal sense. She and her mother need sorting out - I think you should act as the injured party here.

yes, she shouldn't have gone through your things, this is wrong and her family should feel embaressed that she did that. if they do mention it again you can always shrug it of and say, "well at least i respect people's privacy and she didn't catch me actually doing it"

Bottom line, you've done nothing to be ashamed of. Just try to forget about them and their lack of respect for peoples privacy and put it behind you. You're better than them :o)
