[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is the equivalent of a little boy pulling a girl's pigtails because he likes her. It is a crude form of flirting...should we condone it? No. But that warrants talking to the parents about changing the boys behavior and explaining why it is wrong, not locking up a kid and throwing the key away. Talk about overreaction.[/quote]

Where did anyone mention locking up a kid and throwing away the key?   Involving the police is extreme, and I wouldn't, but it's not the same as jailing the kid.
I do think it's pathetic that this is seen as "crude flirting".  If the kid ran up and hit another boy, that would be viewed as assault.  But because it's a girl and her butt, it's just harmless.  BULLSHIT.[/quote]

If the kid had run up and hit another boy, we would have told the boy to hit back, or also tell the teacher/principles. Though as discussed, probably giving the bully a taste of his medicine would win out over tattling to the adults.  [/quote]
Yes, the girl should hit back.  But there's one of her and a group of boys with this boy.  So what are her odds?  Should she feel confident that this isn't going to get worse quick?  Why?  Absolutely, I would tell the teachers, principal, and any adults who would hear me.  But the PP's on this thread are saying it's no big deal, so don't report it.  Great message for girls.  They don't have the right to bodily integrity.[/quote]
