Today, I confiscated my daughter’s tablet, phone and laptop after I caught her exchanging nudes with boys. My ex then called me in a rage, threatening to take me to court over “stealing his belongings” since he purchased them. No concern for our daughter’s behavior, just him wanting the stuff. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, as revenge for not buying her a new iPhone, my twelve-year-old daughter told her father that my boyfriend, who just moved in with us, is on the sex offender list. My ex turned my boyfriend into the cops and his parole could be revoked. FML
Today, I found out my husband got my 22 year-old daughter pregnant. Not only that, he’s drained our savings on her including a new iPhone and Macbook, designer clothes and handbags, etc. His defense, in all seriousness, was, "She’s not even my biological daughter, chill out." FML
Today, my son tried extort me into turning the WiFi back on by hiding my purse. He was mad because he'd lost access for being disrespectful. FML
Today, my parents took away my laptop, TV, Xbox, and car all because I broke up with my girlfriend. They said when I patch things up with her, I can have my stuff back. FML
Today, my husband and I were fighting over money. As we were arguing, our 13 year-old daughter stole $250 dollars from my purse. FML
Today, my dad's new girlfriend's daughter came over with them. She had a tantrum because my brand new computer, which I worked and saved for, was better than her notebook, which was bought for her. So what did she do? Oh, she threw it off my desk. For some reason I'm being yelled at. FML
Today, a girl threatened to castrate me if I didn’t refund her for a remote control that SHE damaged. FML
Today, a student's parent yelled at me because they had to pay for school equipment their son had stolen from my desk. Apparently, it's my fault because the item was just too tempting for him not to steal. FML
Today, I heard my wife and daughter arguing. My wife took away my daughter's phone and laptop for being disrespectful. My daughter screamed, calling her mom a fat cow. My wife simply said, "Yeah, well you’re gonna look exactly like me when you grow up!" Now they’re both locked in rooms, crying. FML
Today, I called my ex-husband to tell him our daughter was missing (the police have since found her, she’s fine) and he told me not to bother him with shit like that, because she’s my responsibility since she chose to live with me after the divorce. He then hung up the phone. FML

Your ex is an idiot (which I'm sure is part of why he's your ex). And you and I both know, if he takes you to court, and you tell the judge WHY you confiscated the electronics, the judge will be on your side. And, no, they aren't his, just because he paid for them. You did a good job! way to go!

Let him try. He'll go to prison for his role in distributing child pornography, assuming your daughter is a minor.

depending on where you are and how under age your child is just having those photos on a device is not good, especially if those devices end up in a court room.

very much. now is the time to find out who they were talking with. it sounds like they were both young and it would be something the parents of the kids should for sure handle, before it turns even worse and involves the law. they may not understand the issue depending on age, but it is for sure something that can devastate their futures if not handled now

OP, you are right to do what you did. But your Ex found out about it from your daughter and who knows what she said. This is a case where discussion might help.

The saddest part is thatq if those child **** pics were shared with her boyfriend, it is likely that he then shared them with his friends, who shared them .. . . and they can keep being shared until they end up on **** sites or in the hands of the law or both.

As your daughter is a minor and he technically bought them they do belong to him but you should talk to him about your daughter's actions before giving them back.
