Troubled 7 year old with SEX

[jjjs]

My seven year daughter became curious and typed sex.com into an unprotected computer. Big mistake on my side but I just installed the internet and was installing child protection a day too late. Who knew she would even think of typing that, it is almost as if someone told her too. God knows what she saw but she has been bothered about it since (about 1 year ago). I tried to check out where she might have traveled but it could have been to almost anywhere and non of it was pretty. I'm about to take her to therapy. She imagines my wife kissing another man and all kinds of even stranger thoughts. I have tried to talk to her explaining that love and sex can be very different and she is too young for me to explain some of these things to her but it isnt working. She really wont discuss exactly what she saw so it is hard for me to cover all the posibilities. She has always felt the need to constantly confess what she is thinking, or any little thing she might have done wrong even a year ago, Now it is worse. Is it time for therapy? Have any of you had the same problem and how have you delt with it? She is an Angel and I want to fix this somehow before it causes damage.

How awful.

I think therapy is a great idea if you can find the right person. It might give you daughter a "neutral" party to talk about things she doesn't want to mention to her parents, and a trained professional may be able to gently get more info out of her on what she saw.

Go to your GP (without her if needed) and ask for help, they can refer you to a child and family therapy unit. HTH
