DS said his friend was mad cause she told her "if you're all big and back why don't you hit me" so he did. do you think the kid will have issues with domestic violence if he doesn't get the help he needs?

Go take your meds troll, drink them down with some wine and go to bed.

That's awful. I would not want my DS to be friends with your DS.

Eh - I believe in hitting no one, but I also believe that ALL people need to know there are consequences for your actions AND I do not believe you should allow someone to poke, prod, or otherwise touch your body if you don't want them to.

I emphasize the three strikes rule with my kids: first you ask them to stop, second you tell a teacher, and the third time - you handle it. I bet she didn't touch him again.

You realize that the entire premise behind not hitting girls is that they are weaker and not as able to physically defend themselves, right? No matter what is said it is completely wrong to hit a girl. You're teaching your child horrible behavior. Two wrongs do not make a right.

A boy has much right to defend his body as a girl does. She had that punch coming. If you touch someone else without their permission and you get hit, you had it coming.

But I remember being a young girl and realizing I could say anything to boys and they could not hit me. I probably deserved a punch. It is possible the girl provoked him. It is possible the kid could benefit from a good friend. One incident does not make a bad kid.

There is nothing that someone can say that "deserves a punch." Period.

Give me a break. We live in Bethesda. I was being polite when I used the word "doubt." Actually I am 100% sure my kids are not around that kind of behavior. Sorry if that's not PC enough for you, PP.

You are a naive idiot.

I wonder if George Huguely V's friends thought he was an all around great guy...

Best.post.EVER.

Yes, no one ever beats their wife in Bethesda!

Because their wives have been trained from a young age to just stick it out and not make waves.

My Kindergardener was punched in a Bethesda elementary school. The school (a W feeder school) called me to tell me it was unprovoked and the puncher was sent home for the rest of the day. My DS is now in 4th grade and I know there has been punching on the bus and at recess (both involving 5th graders in the last year). There was also a fifth grader texting pictures of his privates recently. So please-- Bethesda mom needs to get off her high horse. Just because you don't know about it doesn't mean it's not happening.

My guess is you do not have a boy that is older than 10. If you did, you would not be surprised that this stuff happens.

Big and black

She should be suspended. He should be suspended. Everybody should go on with life.

If the kod does negative stuff all the time I would discourage the friendship. I would also discourage the friendship with the bitchy girl, if this is a pattern.

Bethesda mom needs to ask her child not if there are fights at school bu how many a week.

Really??? My kids go to a $40K a year private in Potomac and a student was expelled for similar behavior. So, Mrs. Snowflake, it happens in the burbs.

I grew up in Bethesda. I'm from Bethesda. And let me tell you, Lady. You are pathetically naive. Almost criminally naive. And elitist beyond belief.

Impulse control is not somehow magically better in children with higher earning parents.

I grew up in Bethesda and I live in Bethesda now. I've never heard my DC ever mention anything even remotely like this. This is not about impulse control. The kid punched on purpose. If kids are punching each other in school and I'm not hearing about it from them or from the schools or from other parents, then call me criminally naive. But I seriously doubt it's happening in my DC's schools.

Right. No child has ever punched another child in Bethesda.

I guess you're right. The schools in Bethesda are just like the schools in inner cities.
