[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have three sons and they have told me often that girls LOVE to use the "You can't hit me, I'm a girl" card.

My sons have come home with bruises on their shins from girls kicking them, on their arms from girls grabbing them and squeezing. They've seen girls throw balls at boys' faces, smack them in their faces, punch them in the stomach. We're talking about upper elementary school.

There are girls who go way overboard provoking boys verbally and physically to tempt them to retaliate. I don't know if the boys ever do, I know that mine never have, but I do know it's some bullshit.

Have you witnessed it first hand or are getting your 3 sons play on this?  I volunteer twice a week at recess and have seen major rough housing going on between boys and sometimes boys and girls.  I never see it with just girls - they use their words to hurt instead.  The girls that want to play with the boys are usually excluded from activities such as soccer, basketball etc.. because "because they are a girl."  I watched a group of boys excluding a girl into a game of soccer.  The PA told them she was allowed to play so instead the boys made sure to trip her up everytime she was on the field.  The one ran into her and knocked her down.  She got up and pushed him.  He went running to the PA to say that she on purposely pushed him and she was sent to the bench and they finished their all boys game.

So if you honestly think there are girls are recess punching boys and beating the crap out of them and the boys are doing nothing, you are probably wrong.  Why don't you go check it out for yourself.  Get involved.  [/quote]

I have also been on the recess and the worst thing you can do to a girl is not notice her. It is true the boys play ball and it can get rough. The girls want to play (just because boys are on the radar not because they like basketball) but they cry to the moderator when they fall down or get hit with the ball, which makes the boys not want to play with the girls. boys at this age are generally oblivious about the boys dating girls thing.

There is always a group of boys that are not playing sports, but guess what, girls like the other boys, no surprise there.

Boys are not purposely pushing girls down because they don't want to play with girls, there are plenty of girls that can play with the boys with out crying wolf.

To the dad that ask if the boys provoke the girls... yes, they ignore them... it is literally the worst thing you can do to a girl. Then they act out to get attention. It is sad that some teachers/moderators are always blaming the boys. If you can handle kids you should not be a moderator. If the girl is crying every time she plays ball with the boys, you can't just blame the boys. [/quote]

And just think, pp-Somewhere out there one of those little pigtail wearing hussies is your future DIL. You guys will get along great I'm sure! [/quote]

I am sure my son is way more interested in the girl that can steal the soccer ball from him than one that cries when the moderator can't get the boys to pass her the ball. [/quote]
