Why did I have this sick feeling around this man?

Just been to the park with my 2 ds.
Whilst there another man turned up with his 2 sons of about 7 and 5. The 5 year old was not wearing any trousers or shoes.

When he was standing about 15 feet away I got this sick oppressive feeling. I had to physically move away to the other side of tbe Park. Then I noticed his interactions were slightly off with his kids. He was picking them up and carrying them more than I would with kids that age. For a split second I saw him put his hand between one kids trouser but cheeks before giving him a pat on the bum. Then he went and leaned over the other one on the swing.

I don't know if I was being paranoid but his energy felt off. I didn't know what to do. I almost thought of confronting him, but his movements were so imperceptible that I could well have been imagining it. Wtf should I have done.

This sounds so bizarre. I think leave them alone.

I don’t think there’s anything you could do really. What you describe could have been totally innocent, you just didn’t have enough information to know either way. You couldn’t have addressed it or done anything on the basis of seeing one interaction.

Yes thanks there was nothing I could do on this occasion was there. Probably nothing but just felt a little odd. Hopefully I was imagining things.

That does sound odd.. why wasnt 5 year old wearing trousers i wonder... i think make an anonymous report to the police if that's possible.
