I agree with that, but in the situations I'm familiar with no one confuses foster kids for natural children, or even step-kids. What the guy did was totally wrong, no question, but I don't think it was "deviant."

We can agree to disagree. They're distinguishable, but not so distinguishable to make it not a parent-child type of relationship. And he was deceiving them; under the circumstances presented, the girls were not consenting to sexual play. It's one thing for me to play gynecological patient with the noir boys, and another for me to undergo what I really think is a medical-type exam, but is not. That's at a minimum predatory, and maybe sexual assault, and to me predation and sexual assault are deviant. If he just fantasized about it, it might be different.
