[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The reason it feels abnormal is the specific sequence of events—he left his home, found your son, lured him away from the group, found a private location, then engaged in this series of inappropriate actions in a span of 15 minutes, gradually ramping up (exposing himself, then son, then touching son, then asking to be touched).  So while nothing has happened YET that is traumatic or dangerous to your son, this behavior feels much more intentional than normal body play for those ages, and it seems very likely that he will escalate, if given the chance.  I wouldn’t call CPS, but I would contact the guidance counselor at the school this fall and report the situation so someone with more context and experience has eyes on this situation.[/quote]

I do think the specifics make it more concerning than if the same thing happened with two kids who were hanging out alone in a room on a playdate. I also have questions about the dad. How did he find out, how did he react, what was his attitude when he shared this with op?[/quote]
