[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’d tell her to slap/hit him the next time he does if, ideally when the teacher is not looking. He is likely old enough to be really embarrassed by a girl smacking him and probably won’t tattle. Even if he does- whatever. She’s 9, there wont be any actual lasting consequences anyway  (and teacher and admin are likely to be sympathetic to her, and he will probably get punished as well). Either way he will stop bothering her, so problem solved. Sorry, minor violence IS the answer sometimes. 🤣[/quote]

So crazy to me that this is seen as fine advice to give a girl, but if a boy retaliates the whole internet says hes a menace, unfixable, males are ruining schools, etc. Why does the girl get to sneakily attack someone and that is a good thing?

I'm not in support of the boy poking her, but also not in support of girls being empowered to hurt others either.[/quote]

She's not being empowered to hurt others.  She's being empowered to defend herself.  But I think slapping is the wrong move, I agree with loudly telling him to stop and/or kneeing him in the crotch.[/quote]

Or a swift kick in the shin [/quote]
