[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My 4th grade boy is not a jerk, but I would estimate that 30-40% of his classmates / teammates are. They are pushing boundaries and figuring out social stuff. [b]I think it’s great that you said something back to him.[/b] Most of them will grow out of it. My SIL married a man who had kids from his first marriage and the boys were 9 and 11 when we first met them. Mine were 2 and 4 at the time and I remember telling my husband “goodness help us if this is our future because these kids are soooooo annoying”. They are not jerks or annoying any more, they are really great teens actually that are polite and able to have interesting conversations. [/quote] +1 on this OP. If my 4th grader (who is a girl, but still) said something negative about really anyone out loud in class, I would want her to be corrected. Gossip, especially loud gossip, is not OK.[/quote]
