[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 288616, member: 1233"] MWM is right about calls to CPS and what KayKay can say to anyone. Actually MWM isn't 100% right about calls to CPS. In many, but not all, states, ANYONE who sees and/or suspects child abuse or neglect is REQUIRED to call CPS. Most states require at least teachers, ministers, therapists, child care workers of any kind to report any suspected abuse or neglect to CPS. Some require it of every adult. Some states even include teenage babysitters to report. Before I was 18 I made two reports. One was a family of 8 kids who hired me to babysit and the house was SCARY dirty. Scary like poop on the floor from animals AND people (poople?), headlice (one of the kids showed me a bunch of them like they were PETS!) and kids with marks all over their bottoms and legs and stomachs from being hit with a belt and marks from where one of the adults would throw a rope around them and hog tie them if they were "bein' bad" (just like if they were cattle!). The house was actually condemned and the landlord couldn't even sell it. The other was a child who came into the store where I worked. She had long pants and sleeves on in even the hottest weather. One day she wore a skirt and she had oozing sores and burns all over her legs. To the point it was staining her skirt through and I had to wash off the floor that she sat on to look at books. When she went to the bathroom I snuck back to quietly wash off the sores and get the address from her. I was lucky that they paid for their books by check that day, so I had an address. So, knowing about this child abusing the OTHER kids would require a report, and then his behavior might be a sign of abuse of some kind, so that would be another report. She needs to have the address of the family and the names of the parents if possible, and a phone number if she knows that. The boy could be Aspergers. With Wiz the diagnosis was questioned for a while by the docs. It is the only answer that fits. With this boy, it could be that what HE hyperfocuses or obsesses on is sex or even seeing female sexual body parts and also of murder and gore. They may or may not be combined for him. But the chance that it is a sign of abuse is too great, so reporting it seems, in my humble opinion, to be the best way to get help for this child and for the family and for the rest of the children in the community. I hope that the boy is helped. [/QUOTE]
