Little boy help!! please!?

Question

im volunteering at this camp, and theres this little boy there whos 7. he tells people hes 9 or 16 or 27 or other ages. so i cant trust anything he says.

he knows way to much for his age. he says he has an old brother, but some leaders say he doesnt. he tells girls there hot, ask them to be his girlfriend. he talks about kissing and touching and stuff. he also know curse words.

i want to know what is happening to him at home, because hes 7 and knows way to much.

and i dont know if hes getting harrassed or something?

Answer 1

I would definitely have somebody talk with his parents.  He has to be learning this behavior somewhere.  But then again, his parents obviously aren't too helpful anyway.

It's sad... it really is.

Answer 2

I have a little brother that age and I agree this boy knows alittle too much for his age... have you tried discussing your concerns with another volunteer at the camp??? If not maybe try talking to his parents... but be careful if you decide to take that route some parents don't like to be told how to handle there child or hear anything bad about them... Plus he could be having problems at home so it could make things worse for him... Id try talking to someone else in the group and just monitor his behaviour etc... and maybe try talking to him but again be careful this is a tricky subject.
