Girls are at an order of magnitude greater risk of sexual abuse when her parents divorce. When the girl is living in the mother's home with another man present - the mom's boyfriend or even the ex-husband, girls are at even GREATER risk of sexual abuse. '...girls "were more than [seven] times more likely to be abused"" than children living only with females'. That's a 700% difference, 7 times more likely that a daughter will be sexually abused if her single mother has a man in the house. (Cornell Law Review, Volume 86, Issue 2 January 2001, article 1).
That the girl is in a home with the mother and a non-family-member male isn't a great situation; that the male in question is acting like a teenage boy trying to impress a girl he likes is even more worrisome.
I hope the mother keeps a close eye on this and has a very open relationship with the kid. Her life is much more likely to get screwed up; I wouldn't want that on my conscience if I was the mother OR the father in this situation. Dad needs to be around and participating in her life, not in jail for assault or slapped with a restraining order that prevents him from contacting the child.
