This is an extremely difficult situation for parents as society often feels a nine year old isn't capable of rape and thus far, it is not proven they can or even want too. With the child being accused of rape so young the only proof would be semen samples (which in your case is probably too late. Bathing will remove the evidence) and other than bruising around the genitals or rectal area it is highly unlikely an internal examination would be done on a 3 year old. It is also extremely important that anyone of any age is not accused of rape without proof. It can damage their reputation and also receive a great deal of media pressure and if taken to court and it's a false accusation or there is no proof the person accused of the rape (even a child's parents re their child being accused) can sue their accusers. Also, children can be curious and 'touch' or 'poke' a younger child in their privates. It's more common that people think. It would be to your best interest to talk to the 9 year olds parents and discuss this between you. You didn't give any circumstances as to how you found out and you have to be extremely careful you don't jump the gun if for instance your 3 year old said the 9 year old asked them to take off their underwear. This does not mean sexual abuse, but mere curiosity. On the other end of spectrum there are more studies being done on much younger children raping other children (even raping those older than themselves.) Wikipedia -Child-on-child sexual abuse refers to a form of child sexual abuse in which a prepubescent child is sexually abused by one or more other children or adolescent youths, and in which no adult is directly involved. The term describes sexual activity between children that occurs without consent, without equality, or as a result of coercion. This includes when one of the children uses physical force, threats, trickery or emotional manipulation to elicit cooperation. In some instances, the initiator exploits the other child's naivety. Child-on-child sexual abuse is further differentiated from normative sexual play or anatomical curiosity and exploration (i.e. "playing doctor") because of overt and deliberate actions directed at sexual stimulation or orgasm. When sexual abuse is perpetrated by one sibling upon another, it is known as "inter sibling abuse". Young children who have not matured sexually are incapable of knowing about specific sex acts without an external source. Consequently, children who initiate or solicit overtly sexual acts with other children most often have been sexually victimized by an adult beforehand, or by another child who was in turn abused by an adult. More than half have been victimized by two or more perpetrators. In some instances, the perpetrating child was exposed to pornography or repeatedly witnessed sexual activity of adults at a very young age, as this also can be considered a form of child sexual abuse. The incidence of child-on-child sexual abuse is not known with any certainty, similar to abuse by adults. It frequently goes unreported because it is not widely known of in the public, and often occurs outside of adults' supervision. Even if known by adults, it is sometimes dismissed as harmless. In particular, inter sibling abuse is under-reported relative to the reporting rates for parent-child sexual abuse, and disclosure of the incest by the victim during childhood is rare. Children who were sexually victimized by other minors, including inter sibling abuse, show largely the same problems as children victimized by adults, including anxiety, depression, substance abuse, suicide, eating disorders, post traumatic stress disorder, and difficulty trusting peers in the context of relationships.Inter Sibling abuse often results in distortion of the victim's beliefs about child sexual abuse. Major factors that affect the severity of symptoms include the use of force or coercion, the frequency of the abuse, and the invasiveness of the act. An increased risk of victimization later in life has also been reported. The media has reported on this phenomenon. In once instance, an eleven year old girl accused an eight and a nine year old boy of simultaneously raping her. Note: The police are highly suspicious of this 11 year old (larger than the two boys) and was also with a friend. She a also changed her story and inconsistant with what she says. So far the two boys are in custody, but charges have not be laid until further investigation. internet and reality show star Tila Tequila claims in an interview to have been molested by an 8 year old female friend when she was 5 years old. Note: She 'claims' but hasn't proved this to be true. Statute of Limitations could also be a block for her as these laws vary from State to State.
