[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DS shared with me two incidents of "weird" girl behavior at school: 1) he saw one girl drew a stick figure with a giant penis on a note pad, and the girl told him another girl (her BBF) did it too; and 2) while he's sitting at his desk a girl out of the blue told him to close his legs (he's wearing pants that day). I told him they have issues and keep distance, but I think this is NOT normal at all for 12/13 yos and is toxic for boy-girl relationship. What else do I do? Thx![/quote]
Normal. Nothing to do.[/quote]

So you're saying it would also be "normal" for boys of that age to be drawing pictures of female anatomy?  And telling a girl to close her legs - for whatever reason?  [/quote]

Middle school teacher again.

Yes, that is normal too. I find plenty of stick figures with giant boobs drawn on various surfaces. Boys and girls both make sexual comments back and forth. Their favorite game is to say some sexual innuendo, and then when I reprimand them they'll say, "Ooh, you thought that was sexual? Your mind is so dirty!!"

Hint: never use the variable "d" in math class. Factoring d^2+3d becomes d(d+3), so kids love to shout "pull out the d!" When you show them d^2 is dd, they'll all giggle about how they loooove double d's. And always solve all example problems ahead of time. God forbid the solution is "69". If it is, I've lost the entire class to a fit of giggles for at least a few minutes.

Middle school is a special place. My first year teaching my face was a permanent shade of red.[/quote]
