13 yo showing vulgar gestures to girl classmates
While I was teaching to Class 8, the classroom was completely silent. Suddenly, three girls called me over and told me that one of the boys had been making vulgar gestures toward them. Since I was walking through the aisles while teaching, the boy cleverly waited until I passed by his bench to make those signals, which is why I did not notice it immediately even though I was nearby. The gestures were so inappropriate that the girls themselves felt ashamed to demonstrate them in front of the class.
I then asked the girls to identify the boy and called him outside the classroom.I firmly punished him for his behavior and made it clear that such vulgar and disrespectful conduct toward classmates would never be tolerated, and gave him a serious lecture about respect, dignity, and the importance of treating every classmate , whether boy or girl , with the same respect one would show to members of one’s own family. I was deeply angered and disappointed by his behavior, especially because such actions can make classmates feel unsafe and humiliated.
What more could i have done?? And where is the kids of this generation heading towards??
