I have an uncle who...well, sounds like a complete pedophile but if he is, he's never been caught. My aunt swears he's just a perpetual kid who tries to talk to kids and make them feel normal. I can't explain it without a story. We never see this uncle but after my dad died, he wanted to stay in touch. He decided he'd make a tradition of taking all of his great nieces/nephews somewhere special for their 13th birthdays. First up was my sister's son. I was thinking no fucking way is he taking my kids anywhere but she let them go to San Diego. First night, they're sleeping in separate beds and my uncle says to my nephew "you know, sometimes boys and men get hard in their sleep and that's completely normal". Nephew freaks out, waits till he's asleep and hits the streets. Fortunately we have a family friend who lives down there who went and picked him up. Trip over.
He came to visit our house briefly last year and one of the first things he asked about my daughter was if she was "menstruating" yet. WTF??????
He's just weird. I would never leave him alone with my kids. No, no, no. My dad didn't even really like his younger brother. He just tolerated him.
I would characterize the rest of us as mildly dysfunctional.
