[quote=Anonymous]MS boys can be extremely mean as well. As with adults, male poor behavior is given different labels and excuses. The MS boys can be particularly vicious online. They frequently ask girls for nudes, use the n word, insult others using foul language, sexist and homophobic and racist slurs. In real life, the MS boys can make fun of non athletic kids, geeks and/or anyone perceived to be other/ weird. Girls may be more emotionally complex but MS boys can be just as mean. It is so universal that there must be some evolutionary purpose - survival of the fittest and the thickest skinned. That said, It shows to me that DEI education is incredibly important. Many younger bullies do not automatically grow out of it but go on to bully in professional settings/ work places. Success on the long term requires good social skills and embracing the many ways we both differ and are alike as youth and adults.[/quote]
