[quote=Anonymous]My DD, in 7th, regularly reports fights, students disrespecting teachers, etc etc. She's a pretty level headed kid and it just doesn't bother her. In 6th grade she told me about a fight between two girls - both of whom were tangentially friends - on a field trip on a bus. She says those two girls have anger issues. Also the bus - a group of kids set a fire on the bus. A boy threw candy at some of her friends. Boys called her friend bad names. Etc. When she tells me these things, if I react too strongly she's just like, mom, it's middle school, no big deal, I see worse than I tell you. She's easy going and most people seem to like her. She's also a middle of the road student who is polite and friendly to teachers. So she's aggravated sometimes that the teachers have to deal with annoying kids. But in general, it really doesn't register with her. On the other hand, man I feel for those teachers. I also think this environment might be be the best for our younger child, who is more sensitive and impacted by other kids. [/quote]
