[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 723770, member: 1550"] A child we adopted at 11 molested my very young other children (they are grown now, also adopted, and I have nothing against adopted kids...i love mine to the moon and would easily take a bullet for them!) I do not know if a child looking at pitures of young kids is a crime. However, when this 13 year old who hurt my littles was finally caught, the county I live in, without any prodding from us, took this 13 year old to court. He was found guilty of the felony of sexual assault of a minor. It was explained to me that an age discrepency of six years constitues sexual assault of a minor, although the 13 year old was techically also a minor. He was setenced to a residential lockdown specifically for young sexual predators. He tried to offend while there even with 24/7 surveillance and a boatload of help. He had to sign up as a sexual predator. I have no idea if all unusual sexual behavior in teens is treated harshly. But be prepared. I personally feel it is premature to go to an attorney. Your son isnt charged with anything. You need your moey for therapy in my opinion, unless you can afford both therapy and a lawyer. Not all of us can. Mandated reporters, of which I was one as a foster parent, must report any child abuse to CPS even if anothet child did the abuse. I truly dont know if only looking at little kids or talking about desires counts as dangerous enough for reporting to CPS and am glad I never had to ponder this. I would have had to have sought direction. The child we had was taken out of the home and we felt he was too dangerous to be in a family. We did not want him back and feared he would always terrify the littles, so the adoption eventually was severed by the state. So I dont know if this boy ever got better. He has four kids now. I pray so, but my only contact with him is what I saw on Facebook. Professionals can assess what is wrong with your son and tell you his prognosis. I am thinking that unless he did touch a young child and a victim comes forward, things will not be as rough on him as on our boy. One child I know, his parents our friends, was adopted young and very disturbed and at 12 admitted he was attracted to young girls. He had an eight year old sister and was removed from the family. He was never allowed back home that I knew of except for short visits, but never was in legal trouble. They moved and I dont know the outcome. Still....your son must be perceived as a risk to your other kids. Keep up the good work and help him as well as all of your children. Dont be us. Please. XXX [/QUOTE]
