[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 361569, member: 3419"] [INDENT][I]As a side note for those who have been fortunate enough to not have experienced these things, when a peer or stranger tries to bully a young teen into sex, the teen will fight it off or tell or whatever they can to defend their self in most cases. It is the "grooming" that preceeds the actual molestation that is so dangerous when it's a family member or someone close or well-known to the kid. It's the manipulation of the vunerable and trusting that allows it to happen and not get reported right away.[/I] I'm coming in late to this, but this section you wrote made me think of the "training" that my husband and I had to go to in order to volunteer at difficult child's school. A Catholic school. A church with-a history, Know what I mean?? They interviewed real kids and real perps, (I think the perps had to talk on film as part of their rehab) and it was truly amazing, how manipulative they were, how they were convinced they would never get caught, how they never, ever once considered the kids' feelings, how it was all a big kick for them. And of course, those who were closest to the kids--family members, Boy Scout leaders--did the most long-term damage because no one suspected them. Anyway, Klmno, does your son have any idea that he might be placed with-your brother? Has he made comments about your brother? [/INDENT] [/QUOTE]
