DD1 told me this evening that on 3 occasions this afternoon a boy in her class pulled down her tights and pants and 'put his hands in her bottom' She demonstrated what he did. I am fucking livid.
Both children are 5, in reception.
She said that on 2 occasions no adult saw and she didn't tell anyone. On the third occasion a teacher noticed and called the boy away.
I have phoned the other mum, with whom I'm on good terms, and explained what DD1 has told me. I was calm, I know her and we're on friendly terms. I said I understand that often children aren't aware of the significance of their actions. But as I've promised DD1 it will not happen again, I will have to inform the school. The other mum sounded like took it seriously and will speak to her little boy and tell him he mustn't do it again.
So. I'm posting this for your views on my reaction and next steps. I'm feeling emotional, trembling and furious. But am I overreacting? They are only 5. But she was upset as she told me, and confused. Am I right to take it up with school? Do I just chat to the class teacher or the head aswell? What should I say and what should I expect from them.
Thanks.
