I have a question about a topic that has been troubling me for some time. My husband and I have been married almost two years, no children as of yet. We are very happy together and he is a loving, devoted husband and my best friend. A few months ago my husband opened up to me about a memory he believes he had been repressing from his childhood.

When he was 10 years old he and his 4 year old sister were playing house by their family pool in their swimsuits. As they were pretending to be "Mom and Dad" he said moms and dads got naked together and then he proceeded to (very briefly) expose both himself and his little sister by pulling aside their swimsuits. Nothing else happened, there was no touching, and he forgot all about the incident until years later. He was only 10 at the time, so I would like to chalk this up to an innocent young boy just beginning to try to make sense of the sexual side of life, but I don't know. Is this something I need to be concerned about? If so, what can I do? I can't imagine not trusting my future children around my own husband. Please advise me in this area. I don't feel comfortable reaching out to either of our families about it as it's so personal and my husband was very upset by this memory (he was in tears as he told me and it took a lot of effort for him to finally come out and say it).

Any input would be most appreciated.
