So his take was, on the surface, when you look at the age of your children here, This behavior could fall within the range of normal sexual curiosity and exploratory behavior. But there are some aspects to your story that were concerning to him.

And the reason, Brad explained, is that in his experience, when clinicians see sexual curiosity between siblings, they're typically around the same age, which is what's going on here, There's the fact that your daughter might have been moaning when this happened.

There's the fact that your daughter was clearly pushing for this, that she was specific with what she wanted, which seems to be sexual gratification, and your son was clearly uncomfortable with it but didn't stop. And then there's the fact that your daughter took it a step further when she actually threatened to get her brother in trouble if he didn't continue.

To quote Brad here, there are at least three factors that take this well beyond typical childhood sexual curiosity. And they did make Brad wonder. Wonder, I want to be clear, not suspect, Whether your daughter has been abused or exposed to pornography or something like that and might be engaging in what he called sexually reactive behaviors.

Because given what you shared, Brad did wonder whether someone said similar things to her or showed her certain things or she saw something and that's caused her to now repeat the same behavior with her brother. Who knows? Maybe another kid at preschool or daycare showed her some stuff. I don't know.

Brad actually said that he's seen too many of those situations because I know like you're thinking like, where would they have gotten this little kids, man? They get an iPod touch and it's off to the races, especially if they have older siblings.

Now, I'm heartened to hear that when you ask them if they had ever seen anything like this happen or if it ever happened with anyone else, they both said no. But you also can't really fully confirm that right now. And maybe your kids sensed that it was important to say no, so it's still a question mark. Because again, in Brad's view, the extent of the behavior is kind of not normal for this age.
