Moral implications don't exist for her. She saw a fully adult male.
Legal implications don't exist, because no law on the books takes into account the concept of a child inhabiting an adults body.

Josh is a child and bears no responsibility for any sexual encounters
Solid assessment.
I think the closest legal grounds we have would be when an adult that has the mental capacity of a child is the victim. Of course this isn't the same scenario, and all tangible evidence is lost when Josh returned to his normal body.
Any questionable acts would happen after the movie's end. My thoughts have always been what the effects were to Susan once she saw he was telling the truth. We don't even really get that short of the look of amazement, and maybe shock on her face.
I'd imagine she would be the one feeling violated here.
At least he appears to be a grown ass man, unlike the Disney film Blank Check.
She was a fed too wasn't she?
immediately what I thought of when I read this post. Even when I was 10 I was like "this is weird..."
