A Netmums user has revealed that her partner watches porn whilst sharing a bunk bed with her eight-year-old daughter...

The mum-of-two posted in the "Is This Normal?" forum, and explained how she had discovered what her partner was up to.

She began by telling fellow posters that she had not posted in a forum before, but that she had been left with nowhere to turn after finding out what her partner had been doing.

She wrote: "I am worried about the moral levels of my partner."

Not a good start. Surely if you're worried about your other half's morality levels, you shouldn't let them anywhere near your kids?!

She continued: "Today, I found search history on his phone and it was clear that he had been watching porn in the early hours of this morning and the same on Monday... Usually his history is deleted but obviously he forgot this time.

"We have a three-year-old son who often comes into our bed in the night and so my partner goes and sleeps on my son's bed which is the bottom of a bunk bed, and my eight-year-old daughter sleeps above.

"There is no doubt that my partner was watching porn twice with my daughter sleeping above. Something isn't sitting right with me. I haven't said anything to him yet but really in my mind I want him to go.

"My daughter is from my previous marriage and not my partner's daughter."

Whilst the first few commenters advised the mum to ask her partner what was going on, but others started to ask whether she thought there was something more sinister going on.

One asked: "Are you writing this because you suspect something else has happened? Or are you confident he's just watching porn in there?"

But another advised the author to think about it from another angle: "Your husband may just have been a bit thoughtless, not registering the unsavoury connotations of what he was doing.

"If anything, it doesn't demonstrate a huge amount of respect for your child. Probably just thoughtlessness rather than malevolence."

However, they then added a second train of thought to the situation, asking why she was checking his phone in the first place: "The fact you're looking through the search history of his phone is not a great sign. How come you're doing this? Do you not trust him? I wouldn't be very happy if my search history was being scrutinised."

She responded with: "Definitely not anything like child abuse, I wouldn't be on here if I felt there was anything like that going on - I'd be down the police station.

"For me it's just the thought that he would do that in the same room as she is sleeping in, and I would have the same problem if he was doing it in a room anyone was sleeping in.

"I like to do random spot checks as I just don't trust anyone fully and I need to know for things like this as he's stupid enough to do that. What if she ever woke up and saw anything?"

We've got to say, we're a bit concerned about this one...
