[QUOTE="busywend, post: 183961, member: 391"] difficult children half-brother (who was adopted as well) has not been capable of figuring out these boundaries. He tries to touch as well. He has tried with her and with me. I know he has tried with his mom, too. He is 6, too. I have seen him go cross eyed looking at breasts (covered ones of course) with a goofy smile. I also noted that he mentioned his 'best friend' was a 13 year old girl and he wanted to invite her over to play. She probably does not even know his name, yet she is his best friend. It seems to come up randomly and it is not every time I see him that he acts like this. If he is otherwise entertained, no breast touching attempts are made. It is difficult to know how to react to it. I am telling you this for your own information so you would know what to expect from someone getting touched by your difficult child. It just seemed so wrong that I felt angry immediately. His mother did get angry and yelled at him. Not sure what else one would do in the moment. If she had prepared she may have already spoken to him about it and could then cue him that he was being inappropriate. That would have calmed my anger immediately. I never said a word as she yelled at him before I could say anything. I do not know what I would have said - and I know this child. If it was a stranger I would have been more freaked out. Just food for thought. [/QUOTE]
