I'll show you mine

[maggiemae01]

I have a 7 year old nephew.  his mother is "a recovering drug addict" she has had DYFS involvement and has lost custody of her son from time to time due to drugs.  she has had numerous brushes with the law.  My nephew is a Bully.  He will bully the other kids unprovoked.  instead of joining in on two of his cousins playing he will pick one and start to be physical with them.  he calls names.  several months ago my mother in law was baby sitting him and my other nephew whom is 2 months older and found them in the bedroom on the bed nude.  last night my mother in law was sitting for him and my niece when my brother in law found them naked in bed under the blankets.  I don't know how much of I'll show you mine is normal or if this is just another pattern to his bullying.

I don't think this is normal at all...  I have a 7 yr old and he doesn't even allow anyone to look at him without any clothes on.. I give him his space when it comes to that... I think he's either watching to much t.v. or he saw this somewhere... maybe he saw his mother....  take this little boy to counseling or try asking him why he does that.. if he saw it somewhere or someone did it to him... you have to make him trust you so you have to find the right words to use to ask him, but this is very serious.

When I was 5 yrs old I was molested by my 13 yrs old cousin... so I remember being 6 or 7 and playing house with my little friends and I would want them to take of their clothes.. so trust me I know what I'm talking about...

7 year olds do not have that excuse.  They know better.  It sounds like he is copying behavior he has witnessed firsthand.  He probably does not even see anything wrong with it.  These children have not learned the moral values, the average child has.  The bully thing is common among children from drug infested parents.  They tend to be very insecure and feel that is the only kind of control they have in their lives. Sad isnt it? The other children that were involved by the way, are just as responsible for their behavior  and should be held accountable also.
