Re: sexual abuse?

If it makes you feel uncomfortable, tell him to stop. If he doesn't, you need to tell your parents or a school administrator to get him to stop. There is probably something in your school handbook concerning sexual harassment and its consequences.

Re: sexual abuse?

Depends on your jurisdiction. Every jurisdiction has their own unique set of laws, though they most share a common backbone.

This could be sexual assault.

I've studied criminal law in California and I can mostly answer for that. It's hard to prosecute (or convict) children under 14. They even make rape an intent crime.

But this seems petty. Why not just threaten the guy? (Assuming you don't like it.) Threaten to press criminal charges. That should leave him off.

For as long as you're okay with it, I don't see why matters. This looks like a psychological thing.

As other people have said, if it makes you uncomfortable, you should tell someone of authority.

Re: sexual abuse?

First off, it's not sexual abuse, sexual abuse is molestation and rape. The smacking of your butt and rubbing of your thighs, however, could be considered sexual harassment if it makes you feel uncomfortable and you feel that way. The touching of your hair can't be considered anything really.

You need to have a talk with him and tell him you don't appreciate what he's doing and that it makes you uncomfortable and then ask him to stop. If he doesn't then talk to someone with authority and report his behaviour.

Re: sexual abuse?

I agree, if it makes you uncomfortable, tell him to stop. If he refuses to stop, just avoid the guy. If he keeps coming on to you, tell your parents to do something with him.

How is avoiding him going to help the situation? She needs to stand up for herself and let the right people know what is going on. He may go and do it to someone else; he needs to know that there are consequences to his inappropriate actions and avoiding him won't bring the consequences to him.
