husband dismissed the signs of difficult child being hypersexual and told me I was overreacting, just like everything else. The professionals I did tell told us to keep an eye on it, but it didn't seem concerning to them.
difficult child probably thought no one was watching - I was inside looking out the window. And he's very impulsive, doesn't think about consequences or being caught. One of the things he does is sneak food in the middle of the night. He knows the alarm is on his door now and it will wake me up, but he still tries it at least once a week. He doesn't seem to learn that I will come out and see what he's doing.
I've asked husband that very same thing about what if it was someone else not in the family, and of course husband said it depended on the kid and if the parent was addressing it. I tend to think husband would not be so nice though.
Thank you all for your responses. It really does help me think more clearly about all of this.
Linda
