[quote=Anonymous]OP, I am so sorry to hear about this situation. I used to be a pediatric social worker in a hospital that had a lot of abuse and neglect cases. You have described some pretty clear potential red flags. Agree with others that I would contact several professionals to discuss first the best way to proceed. A lot of what is traumatizing is having to repeat the story to multiple people, and the fear of not being believed. There are child abuse evaluation centers that will have one forensic interview, done by someone well trained and experienced in these situation. Do you have a good relationship with his pediatrician? That would be a good place to start, to get local resources for a center that works with potential victims of abuse. Again, I am so sorry. You are doing the right thing to pay attention to this. So much damage is done when a child holds this inside for a lifetime. He is lucky to have you.[/quote]
