[quote=Anonymous]As a victim of abuse, if bystanders don't do or say anything then you question whether it really is abuse. So letting the child know that you see what is happening and that it is not normal is already doing something helpful. I don’t know what would be the best way for you to communicate that. Perhaps one day you can bring him a glass of lemonade and talk to him briefly. Or you can ask him to mow your lawn for a fee. And the grandparents should not be let off the hook. When this man and child are not there, you need to knock on the door and tell the grandparents that what you are seeing is inappropriate and that they need to intervene. Call it what it is- child abuse- and let them know that you are contemplating calling the police the next time you witness it. [/quote]
