I have changed my name because know a couple of people at dcs school and don't want to out the person who made this comment.
Was talking to my dds friends mum who helps out with swimming at the school, getting the children changed (in the summer) She was talking about a girl in their class and said that she has a problem warming to this girl - there's something about her she doesn't like, and it's because when this girl was in the nursery class and getting changed for swimming, she'd walk about naked in front of the boys in a 'knowing' way, flaunting herself.
I pointed out that a 3 year old was hardly 'knowing' about nudity and asked her if she meant she had concerns in some way. She said no, she just meant that this girl was far too grown up for her age (at 3 -4) and she didn't like it.
I said that I really didn't know what she was getting at and she said 'you know, little girls who use their bodies to get male attention'.
Was shocked as felt this is a bizarre comment from someone who is a class helper and working with young children.
