Principal Called - What would you Do?

I just got a call from the principal at my dd14's middle school. Apparently she has allowed students to write on her jeans, and one thing written was "my butt" right on her butt. I had asked what was written because I wanted to know if there was anything inappropriate such as racial slurs, etc. The conversation was "short and sweet" because here I am at work. Dd is changing into her PE clothes for the remainder of the day. The principal was concerned about the inappropriateness and "sexual harassment" issues. I didn't get any details such as to who wrote this on her butt, where and most importantly when? A co-worker wants me to get on the school's case about inappropriate supervision and whether or not my dd is safe in the school environment.

Dh wants to ground dd. Sigh. I want to have a talk with her about letting anyone touch her behind. What would you do?

This is happening at our school, too. And you're right, that is really upsetting. Dd tells me all the time that girls wear provocative tops (the rule is you can't show any midriff) but never get called in becauset they are the "A" students, teacher's pets. And of course she's not the first one to write on her jeans. In fact, it happened a few months ago and at that time, someone had drawn on their jeans a raunchy nude picture. Who knows whether they got called in about that or not, guess it depends on whatever mood was striking the staff that day and what GPA that student has....
