[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I come down on the side of calling CPS. It is not your job to investigate. In these kinds of situations where there isn't a lot of Hard Evidence most likely CPS will interiew the father and the boy separately or may just interview the father depending on the investigator.[/quote]

A lot to think about in this thread.

I tend to agree with the folks who recommend calling CPS. No one knows for certain what is going on, but for the sake of the children involved, I think it's right to err on the side of their safety.

I think it's hard for some kids to tell others to "stop." I tell my son that if something doesn't feel right to him he doesn't need to continue to do it. He can tell everyone he had to go to the bathroom, or that he's hungry or even just try changing the subject. If he has to leave, he should do that. I encourage him to talk to me too; so we can come up alternatives. In an ideal world, kids would be able to find the perfect words, but I think for some shy kids, it's a lot of pressure and anything they can do to stay safe is OK. [/quote]
