[QUOTE="svengandhi, post: 536302, member: 3493"] Just to play Devil's advocate, you mentioned that J did not know the French word for midnight. Is it possible that he misunderstood the time the boy said? Overall though, I don't know that a 5 year old and an 8 year playing together is a great idea and I say this as a mom of 5 who has had many years of observing kids of varying ages playing together. Siblings or cousins playing together is one thing but unrelated children is not my first choice. I would also be concerned if the boy told J he wanted to show him something he'd never seen. That could mean possible sexual play or taking him to a dangerous spot. If you felt the dad is trustworthy perhaps you can invite him and his wife over with the boy to see how they play together.
