I love my daughter to bits and, yes, it’s “not all boys”. But that she’s having to navigate this kind of shite in primary school just makes me so angry and sad all at once. Fortunately, she’s not put off school and has merrily called the boy an “idiot she’d like to yeet into the sea”. But this kind of thing seems all too common even at this age. “Boys will be boys!” (And I bet if she’d have fought back, she’d have been in way more trouble than the boy.)

Craig Grannell (craiggrannell@mastodon.social)'s status on Saturday, 08-Jun-2024 03:21:41 JST Craig Grannell School’s response today was to criticise the girls for not telling a teacher right away and then vaguely say that the issue would be dealt with. This after another day of the boy who hit my kid repeatedly calling her and her friend a “ficking bitch”. (He thinks he’s being clever in not swearing, you see…)
