[QUOTE="DDD, post: 450122, member: 35"] My take on this is a bit different. Eleven year olds are often beginning to show signs of puberty. He has issues that are already known and since he has been to Residential Treatment Center (RTC) I would think there is at least a chance that he has been exposed to sexual conversations if not behaviors. To me this is a red flag. You have six children in the house and he is five yars older than his closest sibling. In simple daily living the chances are great that he has frequently seen naked siblings. I don't know how you would avoid that with so many little kids potty training, bathing etc. So I'm surely not finding fault. I admire your energy just keeping up with everyone! on the other hand, to me this seems like a sign that super diligence is required and perhaps some new enforced household rules to assure that not only is he shadowed but that the younger children be told that "clothing optional" is not the rule of your home. Something has triggered his interest and perhaps the therapist can help sort it out but meanwhile I would try to impose the concept of modesty for everyone's safety. How to do that? Lord ony knows...I sure don't. I wish you the best of luck. DDD [/QUOTE]
