In my cousin was beaten up for playing doctor?

When we were young me, my sister and my cousin used to play doctor when we were alone. My cousin was always kind to me. I used to be the patient, my sister was nurse and he was doctor. He used to apply Vaseline on my forehead as medicine and gave me candy balls and sugar blocks as medicines. Once he performed surgery on my leg with red washable marker and used crape bandage as dressing.

Once my sister told my dad and uncles that we used to play doctor and they beat the hell out of him. He was always kind to me. He never spoke to us since then.

    Stupid grownups totally over-reacting to kids playing harmless games. I feel sorry for your cousin, but then I still feel guilty that when I was about 4 I innocently told my mother that the boy next door and I had been looking at each other "down there". She told his mother and she belted that kid so hard with a wooden stick that she broke the stick. As I said, stupid stupid grownups.

    • Obviously I understand the distinction between sexual abuse and what you and the OP speak of. Still, if anyone, even a peer, came near my kid's crotch I would be seriously tempted to make them regret it.

      But, with that said, isn't it interesting how only the males seem to get the blame in such cases?

        Well in my case the boy was a couple of years older and he initiated it, but I don't regard it as abuse, just normal childish curiosity, so the only people I'm blaming are the stupid adults.

    That is a very abnormal reaction.

    I want to say this is not normal but it seems to be TOO normal. Adults tend to project their sexual misdeeds or desires onto innocent children,

      I agree with MissKira and OP. I too got whipped for playing doctor games with my cousin (a girl 2 years younger 8 and 6 ) even got punished by seperation. I don't get why adult think everything is sexual we were just kids exploring innocently.
