The mother of a 14-year-old Abilene boy believes her son has been sneaking out of their South Abilene home at night and sleeping with her 42-year-old neighbor.
The mother, whose identity we are not revealing, said she found out about it by reading her son's text messages, not just checking to see who he was communicating with.
Police are now involved, and the case will be filed with the District Attorney's office soon.
A new cell phone program called "My Mobile Watchdog" allows parents to read their child's text messages and view picture mail from a separate mobile device or computer. It also allows you to track down the identity of a person who contacts your child's cell phone.
