[QUOTE="keista, post: 450835, member: 11965"] [B]Marg[/B], I respectfully disagree. Once difficult child is armed with your VERY good advice, the 'friendship' with Jack is over, which in turn will bring many questions from Jane, and probably none of them specific enough to "open the door" for this conversation. The only way for either relationship to continue with any positive outcome is for Jane to know what's going on and for Jack to get the help he desperately needs. And even if the relationships end, if Jack does not get the help he needs he will just move on to another victim, and Jane will still be clueless as to why Jack keeps loosing all his new friends. Jane needs this information to help her own son who is bipolar and not getting as much treatment as he apparently needs. Hypersexuality is a symptom of bipolar, and at age 11, this certainly seems to qualify. This is one of those super sticky situations, and hopefully Jane will remain calm hearing you out. You could also not say anything directly, but [B]strongly[/B] suggest to her that she should check the history on her son's ipod touch. He could have erased it though, I have no clue how those things work. At first, I was thinking that's it's just as equally possible that your difficult child was making up this story and/or it was his idea (sorry, mom of difficult child mentality at work here). HOWEVER I then realized that this may be the REAL reason he stole the ipod. difficult child figured if he got the ipod away from Jack, then Jack could no longer view porn, could no longer show it to difficult child and then may no longer make advances towards difficult child. He was cutting off what he viewed as the driving force behind his aggressor. Quite a brilliant way of trying to solve the problem on his own. [/QUOTE]
