Hi,
I was called into the head teachers office after school today, he said he another boy “Put your hands down your trousers and play with yourself”. I’ve spoken to my son about why he’s said this, he said it was because the boy kept annoying him and when I asked him what he meant by “playing with”, he seemed confused and said he didn’t know, he just said it. He doesn’t know that “playing with yourself” can also be referenced as sexual, he was 8 three months ago, which is how the teacher took it but it wasn’t how my son meant it. The Head Teacher has said as it’s a safeguarding issue, then it would be reported to relevant authorities. Quite upset by the whole situation, I really don’t know what to think.
Any advice would be grateful!
