[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I haven't found this at all with either my 9 year-old boy or my 11 year-old boy. Their friend groups are really lovely boys and lovely families. Both play sports but neither has an identity formed solely around sports, so maybe that is why. Is it all boys or just a toxic environment around certain sports or activities that you are noticing? I wouldn't paint with too broad a brush. [/quote] At our school, it happens separate from sports but is worse among the “baseball boys”. But I’ve heard from friends at other schools that it’s other sports, so I think the particular sport is irrelevant.[/quote] That’s interesting. I’m not in the DMV, and at my son’s private the “baseball boys” are also the worst. It’s really bad. Found out the other day that the baseball 4th grade boys are calling teachers f-ing w re’s the other day. [/quote]
