A 16 Year-Old Girl, Her 36-Year-Old Lover And Mum And Dad
A QUESTION in the Daily Mail: “Your 16-year-old daughter falls for a divorcee of 36 and wants him to move in. Would you let him?”
When Alison Garcia, 16, announced that she was leaving home to be with her 36-year-old lover, her parents could have been forgiven for hitting the roof.
Instead, Sheila and Paul Garcia did something most other parents would find unthinkable.
The lover is a divorced double-glazing fitter and father-of-one called Craig Wright.
Did mum and dad:
a) Sleep with the boyfriend?
b) Move out of their home when the boyfriend moved in?
c) Post the boyfriend to Mali in a box?
d) Tell the police their daughter was 15 and get him arrested?
e) Let him move in and sleep with their daughter?
Answer after the jump…
Answer: e)
Says Alison: “I’m not stupid,” she says stubbornly. “I know to the outside world such a huge age difference must seem weird and unnatural.
“My mum keeps saying it’s a ridiculous phase and I’ll grow out of it, but I won’t.
“My dad is much more laid-back. He takes the view that it’s my life and I have to do what I want.
“After all, I’m 16 and can make up my own mind. He recognises that I’m not a child any more, but my mum doesn’t.”
