[QUOTE="SRL, post: 150806, member: 701"] Hi literally lost. I'm glad that you found us. I've been a member of this forum for five years and I think that your son's behaviors aren't just questionable, but are a major red flag that something is going on. As you already know, typical 6 years olds simply do not have knowledge of the sexual acts that you are describing unless they've been introduced to them. I know that you are concerned that someone may suspect he's been molested but given the nature of his actions you are going to have to risk that. If your son has EVER been left alone with his father or another adult, there is always a possibility of abuse, either physical contact or allowing a child to witness sexual acts. There is also a possibility that your son has bipolar or some other disorder with symptoms that include childhood hypersexuality, but in that case you'd probably be seeing other behavioral problems. No matter what the cause, you do need to get him help, not only for his own sake, but the sake of your daughter and other children he comes in contact with. I know that this is heartwrenching but you really can't let this go. Parents who are aware of their child's sexual acting out but don't take action on it can be held accountable and be at risk for having the other siblings removed from the home by child protection services. Does your son have a pediatrician? If so, I think I would start there and make a call Monday morning. In the mean time, your son shouldn't ever be left alone with any other children, including his sister. You're among friends here. We'll help you through this, but please do take this seriously and get your little guy the help he needs. [/QUOTE]
