Where can I report an 14 year old girl and her irresponsible parents?

My son has been dating this girl, since she was 13 and he was 16. She is 14 now and he is 17. I never agree with this relationship. My son is in the age of discovering sexuality and I thought she was too young to date never mind been sexuality active. To my surprise, I found out that this girl has been sexually since she was 12 with different boys. I do not criticize her nor I expect a virgin for my son, but I want at least someone that has values and self-respect. I warned her father of the consequences, and the father just ignored them. Well, this girl started sending my son semi-nude pictures, by "accident" according to her. I told my son that if she was doing it with him I was sure that she had done it before, my son was mad at me for even thinking that. That same day, she told my son that she had done it before with her other boyfriends. Many of the things I warned me son about this girl came true. Now they are having sex, I notified her parents and the father called me crazy, came to my house to tell me that I had no rights to the my son how to behave and that I could not force my son to help around the house. The parents are going to a bitter divorce and uglier custody case. The girl wanted to stay with the father because he was allowing her to see my son, the mother was against them dating. When i saw that the father was not going to do anything and was just causing problems between my son and I, I prohibit my son from been around the father of this girl, the father was picking up my son behind my back, so I enforced my parental right and my son stopped seen the father but because he was the only one allowing them to date, I told the mother about the situation and at the beginning she seem concern and did not allow the girl to see my son, but the girl now refused to see the mother, the mother spoke with the girl and the mother was to let them see each other only when the mother was with them. I was not convince of that but it was better than allowing the father to be around my son. This girl caused a major problem between me and my son, as she was telling him to call children services and tell them that I was abusive towards him, so he could get place somewhere else and they could see each other I told my to go ahead and call them, my son did call them but when children services acme and told him that they believe he was abusing me and they will take care of him and place him in either a foster home or juvenile center located over 2 hours away from here, everything change. Now the mother put her daughter on birth control to "protect" her according to the mother. I was very upset, she just gave them the ok to continue with this. I prohibit my son to be around the mother and the daughter, I know he tries to sneaks around to see her, sometimes I catch him on time and I don't allow him to see her but some other I don't. This girl calls my son at whatever hour she wants, she doesn't care whether I like it or not, she sent me an email telling me that she gives a crap what I think about her, my son is in college but is failing due to the constant phone and text from this girl. I am trying to give my son some freedom but this girl is a monster, I still have control over him, he is 17, when he turns 18 that's is going to be different. I need to know how or where can I report these parents and the girl, she is just a bad influence but is the result of the parents fighting against each other using their children instead fighting for their children.

It seems to me you don't want your son to be with this girl (and truthfully,  it's likely he's committing a felony in this relationship,  so you have cause not to want him to continue this relationship) but you're coming at this from every angle except directly forbidding him.

I don't know why CPS came out and they were good with him having sex with a 14 year old.  That makes no sense to me at all.

Instead of going through every other avenue - trying to get the mother to prohibit the girl,  the father to prohibit the girl,  trying to scare the girl off yourself,  why are you not addressing this problem with your son?

You are acting like this girl, age 14, is running you, and yet you are the adult in the situation. I think seeing a 14-year-old as being a monster is part of the problem. She is just a teenager, not grown up emotionally at all.  You should be.

If you think you have any enforceable legal rights in this situation, see an a lawyer. If you don't have any way legally to stop your son from seeing whom he wishes, I'm very sorry, but short of moving far away and taking him with you, you are going to have to watch while he (according to you) messes up his life for a while. You would do well to talk to a counselor or therapist if there is no legal remedy you can find.

(Incidentally, I know you don't want them to have sex, but tell him that he needs to use condoms if he is having sex, the last thing he needs is for this girl to get pregnant.)  

Your son is a minor but he does have the right to do things whether you like them or not.  My guess is that she and her father are his way of rebelling, and if they weren't in the picture he would find another way to rebel.
