Sexists and misogynists and Racists; Oh my.

[R. Daneel Olivaw]

23. Okay, I read the OP/thread.

I wouldn't want anybody. boy or girl, harassing my daughter...or son if I had a son.


But it goes both ways. I had an argument with a friend about bullying and the suicides that sometimes are a terrible result of it. Children need laws, guidance and at times discipline just like adults do. The argument went that bullying was alright, and that it only toughens or gives perspective to a young child. I argued that it didn't and sets a horrible precedent that the child's life is undervalued compared to that of an adult. If your neighbor...or a stranger was continually bullying you would you take it or call the police and let them deal with it?

Odds are that you would call the police or a lawyer.

Children of either sex should be afforded the same rights that adults enjoy as participants in this world.

So a continued unhealthy interest in another human being at any age, whether it is sexual violent or verbal in nature, can only lead to problems later.


I'm not sure if I would call a 6 year old a sexual harasser, but I am not a psychologist. I would suggest help for the boy so he can understand that actions have consequences.

I would also suggest help for the class in order to learn from this problem.

Lastly, but not intentionally last I would suggest help/support for the girl.
