This might be a kind of unpopular opinion but in a way I'm glad that schools are going to have to confront this issue. They're very well placed to do so.

While teachers being abused obviously have my sympathies, the school system can't ignore this problem and then act shocked when this behavior appears in schools.

  • training for all teachers on how to manage this behavior and this trajectory for kids
  • social media literacy should be part of the curriculum for kids in all years
  • awareness programs and training for parents
  • exposure to more appropriate role models who can help young boys understand how to interact with women
  • advocating for regulation of social media - it's just bullshit that youtube et al gives this bullshit a platform

You say that, but then they trot out “boys will be boys” time and time again.

Not necessarily.

Female teachers are resigning over this.
