[quote=Anonymous]I think she should ask an adult lawyer friend how to approach this--just as any adult would.  She is in the workplace, and she should do her best to approach her supervisor maturely and calmly, but also with some gravitas and knowledge behind her, if she can.

The pool can hire young adults or adults, but all are required to behave appropriately and responsibly.

I believe she should approach it not as a personal "tattling," but as a bona fide workplace complaint.  She can practice saying what she needs to say with you, her lawyer friend, or whomever and she should also present the complaint on paper and request a response from her employer on paper.  She can do it nicely, professionally, and with 100% confidence that she is DOING THE RIGHT THING.  The young men need to learn, the employer needs to be presented the opportunity to be a good employer, too.

I once called a company when two drivers in a truck slowed down to lean out the window and made a rude comment and animal sound at me and a friend of mine.  I got a call back from the owner the next day saying thank you for the report (he was genuinely very, very nice), and that they had been fired.  That wasn't my goal, but the company decided they didn't want those guys representing them.  I'll bet they learned a lesson.[/quote]
