Homeschool Curriculum & Child Learning

Can inappropriate touching lead a kindergartener to become a sexual offender once puberty hits (this was what was told to us by therapist)

(California)

My kindergarten son is constantly in trouble. At first it was hitting, pushing, not paying attention. Today he pulled his pants down in front of the class and mooned them. He says he does not know why he does these things. He displays none of these behaviors at home. He is an only child.

He always touches his private parts and we always distract him or tell him that is not appropriate in public.

Also today which worries us is that the teacher said he went behind a girl classmate, put his hands on her shoulders and mimicked a humping gesture (that shocked us).

Fortunately we had an appt with a thereapist that day. He told us he did not have autism, aspergers, ADHD. He did feel he was obsessed with his body. He said we had better work on this now at his age because once he hits puberty the police could be involved and he could be labeled a sex offender and end up in Juvenil Detention.

I went on line and saw that hundreds of parents deal with the same behavior. We are beyond worried. Please someone help us. Is it too late for him. He is a good boy at home, follows direction, is polite. He is the light of our lives. We dont want to send him to school we are so worried.
