How do you know if your child has been molested? We have recently find out that a family member was sexually abusing his daughter (he's in jail now) and now I have obvious concerns for my kids. My son I who is acting out though. I've written in before regarding issues with behaviour but when I put them together and recreate the time frame it all started at the same time and has progressively gotten worse.
I just sit know if he is upset due to other highly stressful family issue or if he has been molested and doesn't know what to say, how to say it or who to say it to. His most recent behaviour was looking at homosexual porn (we don't watch porn at all in our home and he is completely banned from all devices with any kind of Internet connectivity at home and school).
Jus wondering what behavioural indicators are and how strong the fear aspect works.

I would contact experts to help me with this. Try Bravehearts, or try a psychologist. You say your son has had behavioural issues so if he already has a psychologist talk to them about how to best approach this and how to sort out what is what.
How old is your son?
