[QUOTE="Malika, post: 529385, member: 11227"] Hello and welcome. Glad you found us but sorry you had to, as they say. People are going to have different takes on this. My own, on the basis of what you have said, is that your reaction is very understandably exacerbated and exaggerated by your personal history and that your son's behaviour is a bit beyond normal. And I say "a bit beyond" advisedly - children DO display sexual behaviour and interest though it is not really sexual in the way we usually understand it. It is completely normal curiosity. However, I don't suppose most five year old boys do lock themselves in a room with a little girl and do this. It also doesn't shock me totally that a five year old WOULD do this though of course I completely understand why you are worried and concerned. I feel your best bet is to speak with a professional whom you trust for further insight and guidance. Easy to say, but try not to panic. It sounds as if you have been admirably controlled and wise in your response so far. [/QUOTE]
