6year old exploring oral ???

Please help,, my son was at a pool play date where he asked to see another boys penis. I got a phone call from the mom a week later saying that her son told her that my son put his mouth on the other boys penis. I can not sleep , I asked my son he denies this , he is 6 years old . Please help this seems more than your average exploring. Do you think my child has been abused ??? He is an only child and with me95% of the time??

I don't think this is a natural way of"exploration." could he have seen this on tv or is exposed to this type of thing? It could be that another child showed him this? I would definitely let his doctor know what is going on so they can point you in the right direction as to what the next step is.

A child doesn't "explore" that way, so yes I would have him checked for sexual abuse.. he could have saw it on TV?  But I would definitely take him to a theripist and it could be another child who has been abused showed your son this..
