DD told me at school that they were all pulled into assembly because one of the girls did some "finger Painting" using her own body products on the toilet wall.
Bleurgh with bells on.Angry
They are not toddlers.They are not in-mates in some high security prison doing a dirty protest.
Is it more repulsive because it's a girl.(Though it would have been just as vom-inducing to be a boy).
They are Year3-Year 6.
Not an AIBU really just a What The Hell?

I agree this is completely bleurgh but I think it is more common than we think

I'm afraid that your dd's school has one extremely unhappy pupil on its hands, and I sincerely hope that she will get the help she needs.

It isn't 'more repulsive' that a female child engages in this behaviour unless you ascribe to the old rhyme about what little girls and boys are made of.

Acting out in this manner may be a way in which children of either sex attempt to relieve or draw attention to internal tensions which may be rooted in some form of abuse.

Of course it's possible that this pupil will someday be acclaimed as the new Tracey Emin, but in the meantime say a little prayer for her and be grateful that your own dd doesn't draw absract art/graffiti on loo walls unless she's in possession of a spray can or an extended she-wee.
