A father who asked an undercover police officer posing as a prostitute to take his 14-year-old son's virginity has been given a suspended prison sentence.
The man from Bulwell, Nottingham, who cannot be named for legal reasons, was given a 10-month suspended jail term.
Nottingham Crown Court heard the man, 42, had approached the undercover policewoman in the Mapperley area in July believing her to be a prostitute.
He admitted trying to solicit a woman to have sex with a child.
The court heard the father was arrested during an undercover operation by the city's vice squad.
The man drove up to the undercover officer and asked her how much she would charge for sex with his son, who was sitting next to him in the car.
Judge Jonathan Teare said he was not sending the father to prison because of his previous excellent character and that he believed he did not mean any harm to his son.
He said: "What you were doing that night was to expose your 14-year-old son to a prostitute because you didn't know she was a police officer.
"You have a duty of care to your son and that is to look after his moral welfare not, as you might think, to break him into the ways of sex through a prostitute."
The father's barrister Matthew Smith said: "There is a thorough sense of shame the defendant feels.
"It's completely at odds with every other part of his character."
Mr Smith added that the boy would be allowed to continue to live with his father.
The defendant will be placed on the sex offenders register for five years.

wat a caring, cool and coded dad

dad wit d 3 c's

the dad na guy man

What kind of father is that? Intending to Expose his minor son to an infested ?

porka:

Perhaps the boy has started exhibiting some traits of sodomy, then the father is trying to bring the about to be lost boy back to reality. It's not politically correct to say that in a court room in Europe.

Good thinking. He might also be trying to boost his sons confidence, you know this kind of boys that would rather run into a locker when females pass by.

His a real dad.

Keep on telling me when I make a blunder. I will appreciate it.

PS: I will be on the "Romance" section next. Follow me!!

This is reprehensible behaviour!

For a father to encourage illicit sex is heinous. He could have been exposing the child to any of a number of STDs. Also, he is doing no favours to the boy by encouraging him to objectify women simply for a hormone-induced bit of pleasure. Shame on this father! Indeed, he should be listed on the sex-offenders registry!

One wonders what other sort of depravity he seeks for his son. Did he seek a drug dealer to get him some crystal meth? Did he take the child to a pub and get him intoxicated? Does he encourage stealing?
