First off, hon, how old is your grandson?


A relative did this to Princess when he was a teenager. I didnt know. She never told me back then. I have always found therapy helpful for everything if you find the right person.


I would probably start with a psychologist because this is a big deal and they have Ph.Ds, thus more education than other therapists. Id make sure it was a male so he could relate better. I would want to talk to psycholovist in advance to make sure he sounded knowlegeable and non judgmental toward you. This is NOT about you. It should focus on helping grandson, not bashing you. I have been in therapy most of my life and although I had a few lemons, i dumped them FAST...first inkling that therspist was not for me...and really did not have trouble finding kind helpcul ones.


If CPS was not called, expect a visit. It is the price of getting help. Any therapist is a mandated reporter. So are teachers. If they find out stuff like this, they could get in trouble if they dont report it. (As I tgpe this I am sad that I know so muh about this stuff.) I am not sure if this counts as being a predator or not. Either way, grandson needs a lot of treatment. You dont know how often he has done this or to whom. We never know that.


Your neighbors are insignificant. Block them out and deal later. Yes, its embarassing but there will be new drama next week.


Good luck!
