[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I hope the mom of teen boys who think this is just boys being idiots will at least read this thread and talk to their boys about not touching other people without their consent.[/quote]

Excuse me? I sure hope you are teaching your girls the same. I don't appreciate girls touching my sons butt, biceps, or chest..nor anything else.

So you agree the boys in the OP were wrong?[/quote]

Well no duh they were wrong. 
No one said they were behaving properly. 
You don't seem to be able to appreciate the degrees of life. 
They were wrong. Should the daughter harp on it? No. Does she need trauma therapy? No. Should the dad have done anything differently? Probably not. He respected her wishes. Should those kids be buried up to their necks and stoned in the streets? No. Do girls get away with crapnlike that all the time? Yes.
It was a bad thing. Bad things happen. It helps to keep things in perspective in life. [/quote]

I am glad you agree they were wrong but I think you may need a lesson in seeing nuance and avoiding whataboutism.

There is a middle ground between stoning (!) and letting them off with no consequences. They didn’t suffer any consequences for their actions. Whatever burden they created from this incident fell on the victim. Yes, I know, that’s life. But you seem to think that’s acceptable.

What other people do has no bearing on what is right/wrong. Are you saying it’s ok for boys to shoplift because some girls shoplift?[/quote]
