Health Article Forum-Discussion about health care and Health article in Health Article Forum

I recently read about a study of bullying and fighting in schools. Acording to the study, one in ten boys has been kicked in the testicles at least once and the article said that it was suprising to the reserchers that 40 percent of these kicks have been from girls who claimed they were being harrassed. It also said boys who wore glasses or had asthma or other disadvantages like that were three times more likely to get kicked in their testicles.These results seem kind of odd to me so I wanted to ask here to find out what people think. To me one in ten sounds very low, I think getting racked happesn to alot more boys than that. Plus only 40 percent of the kicks being from girls sounds wrong too, I thought boys didn't really do that to each other but girls are much more likely to go for the balls if they are mad or scared. So I guess based on what you have seen in schools, does this study sound right to you or do you think it is probably wrong?

Ummm...uhh..well, I'm 47 yrs. old and have never been purposefully kicked in the balls. I hope that helps?
