What this woman did smacks of a horrible sense of boundaries and I can only guess what her history of trauma is. Shared sexuality between parent and child, as in this case, is really a form of indirect incest.

Anomaly, I respect your opinion but have to say that calling this a form of incest is a bit overboard. Having an honest relationship with your parents who support a comfortable attitude towards sexuality is healthy. Who knows what is the real story behind this, but at least, let's keep in mind that it was eleven 16 - 17 year old boys probably laughing at the situation, exactly because his mother was there. Oh well.
The thing that disturbs me at all about this is the fact that a drugstore employee decided his moral duty was to turn the whole lot in, and he somehow was granted the legal authority for a search and seizure of this family's property. Unless there was something obviously illegal going on (remember that this was in a private residence where people can still walk around naked if they want to) I would go at this thing with both barrels blazing. Just because you are developing my pictures it does not give you the right to become an agent of the government to look behind my closed door. I know there were other "minors" at the house that were corrupted as well, but ask yourself what if this peckerhead saw pictures of your wife or husband clowning around with you and he deemed that worthy of a call to the police? He or she decided that the drugstore had a right to look in your windows.
The whole thing reeks of invasion of privacy and moral bullying.
