Yes. But the problem is when kids at young age of 9 and 10 get to know stuffs like this...they are so innocent that they speak this with others also...What I mean is..they dont know what it is exactly...and keep speaking abt it...and that will be in their mind when they enter their teens...and thats when their character goes wrong.
I feel teachers dont make influence in lives of kids anymore. They are doing their duty and it is teaching. They dont really care how kids behave outside school. School name and marks is what they want.
Parents only play important role here. They gradually have to give them the needed guidance at every age. It is all co-ed schools now mostly. So when girls and boys are young..they play with each other..bully and do lots of stuffs. But there is a certain age where they need to start drawing the line which is good for both girls and boys. Parents have to teach them all that at the right time.
