A FATHER and daughter who had a child together say it is society that has a problem with their incestuous relationship and they are OK with it.

John and Jenny Deaves from South Australia caused controversy after admitting on national television that they had a nine-month-old daughter together.

"It's everybody else out there in society that has the problem, we don't have the problem," Ms Deaves said on 60 minutes last night.

"If you've got something to say, say it for Christ's sake. Don't go attacking the kids or the car or anything else, it's not the Australian way," Mr Deaves said.

"We're sure once people get to know us they'll realise that we're not going to pass on any disease to them, we're not going to bite their head off and we're not nasty terrible people," Ms Deaves said.

The couple spoke last night about the death of their first child, Jackson, in 2001.

Mr Deaves said the death of the four-day-old boy from a heart defect had nothing to do with the genetics of their relationship.

"There's dozens of babies born every year that have this complaint or similar complaints," he said.

Channel 9's flagship current affairs program has been under attack after the station's news and current affairs boss admitted viewers did not get the full story on last week's show.

News chief John Westacott said that "on balance" the program should have included the fact that the couple's previous son had died.

"60 Minutes knew about the birth of the first child and doctors believe it wasn't because of the father-daughter relationship (that the baby died) but, on balance, it would have been better to include that fact," Westacott said on Saturday.

The couple have previously been convicted of incest and put on three-year good-behaviour bonds which stipulate they not have sex.

Police are investigating whether Nine paid the couple for the interview, breaching laws under which criminals cannot benefit financially from their offences.

When I saw this pop up on my RSS feed, the first word that popped into my head was "Tasmania"... heh. (sorry , local joke).

There's another related story to this one that indicated that this relationship might have been going for a lot longer than is reported here. I'll search through my archives and see if I can find it.

I simply don't want to "get to know" fathers that impregnate their daughters.  that really does tell me more than enough to make that decision.

Reading this here, I get the feeling that this ... disturbing .. relationship has been going on for a long time.

Clearly a really messed up family, but regardless, that sorry excuse for a male should be horsewhipped from one end of the land to the other for his actions.

Incest is condemned in every society. It is a big no-no. It increases the risk for genetic problems.
