So then no harm apparently came out of it and you dodged a bullet.

It's pretty clear from this remorse, that as an adult you wouldn't do that. No, being a child isn't always a blanket excuse for really bad actions, but given nothing terrible happened as a result, I would echo catnaps and suggest that you can get away with being less harsh on yourself. So many times, people come to this forum, expecting their child self to have adult sensibilities, and it's just not so. We're not born little adults.

thanks to you and others, i dont have much anxiety about this anymore. i still feel bad about it obviously but i atleast dont constantly think about it. only think i was really afraid of is if he actually knew and was uncomfortable. but i dont really believe thats the case anymore
