36 year old Monica Mares and her 19 year old son Caleb Paterson are in a sexual relationship together, and are so madly in love with each other that they’re willing to go to court and possibly jail in order to save their relationship.

I suppose you can’t fault them for that, but in the end a mother is having sex with her son and that’s pretty gross, even if the pair are suffering from Genetic Sexual Attraction. If you haven’t heard of this, it usually occurs when any relatives first meet as adults (Caleb was given up for adoption when Monica was 16 and they only met each other last Christmas) and is often described as uncontrollable. Clearly that was the case here.

Caleb describes the first time he met his mother:

I never had anyone cook me meals or give me anything.

I never got anything my entire life and she went out of her way to make me happy.

After about a week or so I started having feelings for her, and I guess I fell in love.

Monica reciprocated the feelings from her son:

The first time we were physical we ended up holding hands, and then we ended up kissing – and the kissing led to other things.

I felt comfortable with him and we fell even more deeply in love.

I would readily give up the right to see my other eight children if it meant I could be with him.

I’m afraid to go out now though because people in town threaten me and call me names.

Well yeah, I’m not really surprised but Genetic Sexual Attraction is actually a thing. Unfortunately for them though, incest is illegal in New Mexico and they’re currently banned from seeing each other by a court order and are going to have to go on trial for it later this year and could face 18 months in jail if they’re found guilty.

To be honest they’re probably going to be found guilty aren’t they, so that’s them in the slammer? The things we do for love eh? Maybe after a couple of years they’ll be able to run off into he mountains or whatever if they haven’t grown out of it. Good luck to them.
