[quote=Anonymous]Your child deserves more respect -- sometimes things happen and kids cannot, don't or won't put the experience into the right words for adults to react appropriately, some kids even have really good intuition (you did, as a kid). Just because "nothing" happened, something happened -- it happened to you and something happened to your child. Parents can't afford to send mixed signals to kids like "No Means No ...unless it's Grandpa, and then you need to prove to me that whatever made you uncomfortable was worth reporting and acting on...." I had a bad experience once as a kid -- and it was "just" a phone call. Believe me, these experiences stay with a child. Don't socialize with him with your child. Go separately if you want to see your dad. Have you asked your mom about this? I wonder if she has a view on this (knows, won't admit, afraid, abused, oblivious....?).[/quote]
