(THE ACCUSERS STORY) I was watching my brother-n-law's son J in my home along with my son A. At that time J 5yrs and A 6yrs.
A and J where in the closet with out clothes and A was putting his privates up J's tail. And I told him not to tell anyone

The night in question, I did watch J. While I was watching J my mom showed up with a cake for A.
J's parent came back shortly and we all ate cake. I have pics of A&J together in front of the cake.
J and his parents even came to A's party the following weekend.

Since then 4 yrs have past I never heared a word of these accusations. Until A and I where at a outdoor function for kids.
According to a family member, several of the parents where scared for them to play games with A or to be around A.

Also according to family member J had gotten caught at school trying to touch another child. When he was sent to the guidance concilers office.

There after over 2yrs later, J told the story about A and said he taught him. And he also acted out with a doll.

After contacting conciler she couldn't tell me what the story J told. But she did tell me that my son A was mentioned. But according to her it was said that the child was 11yrs. And didn't go to that school.

First of all, theres no way that they could have fit in A's closet because of all his toy's that where stored in there. Also I wouldn't even let him be around J alone after in the past J throw him off the top of a buckbed and laughed about it.
Thinking back I remember J's grandmother which is my mother-n-law telling J's mom that she thought someone at his babysitter was messing with him. Because he was always had his hand in his pants emotional acting out and this is around the time this all was to have suppose to have happened.

There was a 2yr time period that had past when he did the act at school.

My son A was only 8 at that time in the same grade as J. A was not at that school then. But A was going to that school at the time that all of this was supposed to have happened.

My son A has never been caught tring anything on any other child.

And I thought that a school system is suppose to contact the other school when something like this is said to warning them for the saftey of other childern. I would have liked to have know and A could have atleast had a word in it to prove himself.

The point to all of this is, Can I take them to court for slander/defamation?
And what would I have to do to try to get a public apology?


It has been over 4 years since I watched him at my home. J's parents never has contacted me about this matter? And J's parents is very well know to the public and they have spread this to family or family with out even proving there story. Now, they have now ruined my son's name and he has to grow up with people thinking this bull S---T is true.

From the way you talk , this is a "normal" son you have, and you act as though all this is "normal" Lady,If my kids were living near you,I can tell you right now my kids would not be allowed to be around. :mad:
First of all...a child that young and you didn't know!?!?!?!? Thats just crazy.Obviously they were not being supervised properly.Same goes for your son being thrown out of a bunkbed.What were you doing? That was a sure warning sign there :eek:
It amazes me .....the self rightousness of some parents! "Not my son, hes an angel"
Get real! Get you and your kid HELP!

I am not a lawyer, so do not know what would be required for a lawsuit~ BUT as a parent: I would definately take your own child to a therapist who specializes in issues such as these. Unfortunately the only 2 people who really know what did or did not happen are A & J.

If the other child in question has (as you say) had other incidents regarding this type of behavior- You may want to find out if anything has happened to your own son :confused: A professional may be able to mete out what, if anything, has or has not happened with your son. It would be helpful to put your mind at ease regarding this.

Sorry I do not have concrete legal advice~ But if it were my child, I would certainly want to get to the bottom of it.
