I don’t think middle-schoolers are on hormones usually, puberty blockers possibly but not sure.

With the high rate of mental health and austistic spectrum comorbidities associated with trans-identifying children I wouldn’t be surprised to find out that this child had some behavioural disorder, even before they went trans.

You would think that the fact that they apparently have a track record for some rather extreme violence (the two incidents in the video is probably at the more extreme end of violence I’ve seen in that age group) the school would have some kind of plan in place if they weren’t going to expel them outright.

A child with behaviour issues like that, if they had autism for instance, should have a one-to-one assistant for everyone’s safety (the two children I’ve taught with extreme behaviour issues both had 1to1 supervision). You can’t risk those types of children flipping out and seriously injuring another child or adult.
