I wouldn't touch someone else's kids unless one was doing something potentially injurious.

sorry, yes, girls usually do start eyeing the boys by 4th and 5th grade...usually it is just a harmless crush. That's nothing new.

However, the whole fighting thing seems more prevalent in urban schools. I bet this kid had a serious concussion that wasn't treated.
tragic no matter how you slice it
