[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 450992, member: 1991"] Even if Jack's brother is doing absolutely nothing wrong, an older brother who is developing obviously, and sometimes the obvious cannot be easily hidden, can trigger curiosity in a younger sibling. Especially if that younger sibling is at all hypersexual. Right now we have difficult child 3 at 17, totally unaware of how well endowed he is and how to dress to not flaunt it. difficult child 3 is not trying to be provocative in any way, he gets embarrassed if anyone points out the - ahem - obvious, but jeans fade in the high places and the front of his jeans have a very large pale patch, probably aggravated by her nervous habit of clutching at himself when he gets anxious. He does not wear tight jeans - far from it. But we still are very aware of the problem of trying to teach a teenage male how to be aware of other people's sensibilities. So the older brother may not be doing anything to Jack, but he could also be showing porn to his little brother (it makes him complicit in the 'crime' and less likely to tell on him) as well as involving him in other inappropriate stuff that needn't necessarily be overtly sexual. But yes, warning bells going off for me too. As for you guys disagreeing with me - that's cool. I did moderate my initial opinion, explained where I was coming from and basically, it's just a recognition that this is unlikely to have a happy ending, whichever path is taken. Marg [/QUOTE]
