I Am a Single Mom With Two Kids
Please give advice I don't know how to handle this.
I'm a mother of two twelve year old's, one boy and one girl. I have been a single mom for about three years now and am in a situation where I need advice. About two months ago at a glance I noticed that my son had one of his sister pairs of underwear on. I said, "Is that your sisters underwear, I see?" in a teasing tone. He turned around nervous, pulled up the back of his pants fully covering the underwear and said, "Please don't tell her all my underwear is in the wash." I then said, "I won't but make sure your sister doesn't see those or she'll do a lot worse than make it know your wearing girls underwear." He left the room.
Over the following the last month I noticed a sudden decrease in his underwear in the wash and an increase in his sisters underwear. Yesterday I saw him leaving his sisters room with something. I went in there and saw his sister sitting on the bed and I asked her, "What was your brother doing in here?", "He ahh...", "Well what was he doing in here?" I said again, "Umm..." she could get the words out, "I'm going to ask you one last time and If you don't give me an answer...".
"He was grabbing his underwear." I was astonished, "He does almost every morning." I said, "Every morning?" "He says that he likes the way they are cut and feel, so I choose a five pairs I don't wear and keep them in here for him." She was a little scared, because she clearly wasn't sure if she was doing the right or wrong thing. "When did this start?" "Little more than a month ago. Am I in trouble?"
"No its fine just keep doing what you've been doing, act like I wasn't here this morning?" I walked out of the room scratching my eyebrow thinking to myself -my son wears girls underwear-.
Please give me advice I have no idea how to handle this. Do I support him with this, or do I try and stop him.
