My 3 year old daughter was raped by a 10 year old neighbor boy. His parents are telling people that he was only playing doctor and that we are blowing this out of proportion. Did your doctor ever pull his pants down and stick his penis in your private area or in your mouth???? What do you think? Is this "normal" 10 year old behavior?
We reported this to all the appropriate authorities and the child partially confessed, but it baffles me that his parents think that this is acceptable behavior! We go to trial in November!

How awful. No, it's not normal for a 10 year old to do things like that. If he actually penetrated your 3 year old, that isn't just playing doctor. If sounds as if the parents are not wanting to fess up to the fact that their child might have done something so horrible, and they are trying to justify it to themselves. If the situation were reversed and it was your son and their daughter, they would probably feel the same way as you. Good luck. I hope you have your daughter in counseling and she isn't permanantly scarred by the experience.

NO, but at the same time i question the logic in turning a 10 year old into a sexual offender. The child needs some guidance, surely, and some treatment and support. Both children are the future, we have to do what is right now, to protect the future. Sexual curiosity among children is universal, we have to deal with it. At the same time, education and a strong home with positive values and role models that reflect reality is all that a parent can really do.
Put on the shoes of the other parents, they are in a very tough situation that they must feel is not of their making.
Cut them some slack, they are only defending themselves and their own. At the same time, do what is right, but do so without crossing them.

No, it's not normal. The only reason they are saying that is 1)they are in denial; 2)to protect their son; or 3)they are crazy. Keep doing what you are doing and take this to trial. The boy is young. Hopefully, he can get some help while there is still time. As for your child, make sure she gets lots of support and love from family and friends and see that she gets some therapy to address any issues that she might have. That was a horrible, horrible event for a child to experience, but she can still lead a wonderful, normal and happy life! I wish only the best for you!!!!

No, that is not normal behavior, and i would not be shocked to find out that the parents are molesting this boy, or he has been molested in the past and the parents are aware of it and have not sought out any counseling for this young man. I certainly hope that the authorities are looking very closely into the home life of this young man and that he receives some counseling for his behaviors. He will not stop and this is probably not the first or last time this will happen.If he does not receive help his behaviors will escalate into more preverse and more damaging behaviors. That is really pathetic either this young mans parents are in total denial or they are part of the problem and this is normal to them. Please see that you get your daughter some help, counseling with someone who specializes in small children. Good luck and God bless you and your family.

I could see a five and a six year old being curious about each other's parts but a 10 year old sticking it in a three year old is a bit over the edge. He should have already learned enough to know that it was not appropriate to do.
His parents are obviously in denial and need to spend some time with their son before he becomes a menace to society.

I am so sorry this happened to your little girl. Hopefully she will not have any recollection of it.
No, it is not “normal” you did the right thing by telling the appropriate authorities. Most molesters and rapists start at a really young age when its “Normal kids experimenting” b/c it has happened to them or its something they saw on TV. This happened to my cousin when she was 5. she is fine but the boy needed a lot of help. don’t let this boy fall thou the crakes. His parents don’t understand what is really happing. Hopefully the court will help them see there son needs help.
I will keep your family in my prayer, this little boy and his parents also.

Of course it's not normal. I'm sorry to hear that. No mother ever wants that to happen to their child. This boys parents must have mental issues if they think this is normal. If it is not normal for an adult why would it be normal for a child?

No the parents are obviously not teaching this child appropriate behavior. They should have their heads examined!
