I'm disgusted by what I witnessed at my 4yo's school disco

"Shouldn't they be more mindful of the young audience they're entertaining?" the concerned mother wrote.  

A mum has been left disgusted after what she witnessed at her four-year-old's school disco recently. 

"So, picture this: I'm at the school disco, surrounded by a bunch of adorable four, five, six and seven-year-olds who are having the time of their lives, dancing away to some catchy tunes," the mum begins her post in an advice forum.

"Everything seems great until the DJ decides to shout 'SEXAYY' over the speakers."

"It's not a nightclub"

The mum clarified that the DJ didn't just shout the word 'SEXAY'; he said, "Some SEXAY moves and tunes here."

He also said the phrase four or five times over the course of the night.

"Now, call me old-fashioned, but I couldn't believe my ears. What on earth was the DJ thinking?" the mum continued. "A school disco is supposed to be a fun and innocent event for young children, not a nightclub."

She says she understands that DJs want to create a lively atmosphere, but there's a "time and place" for everything, and that wasn't the case here.

"In my opinion, shouting suggestive phrases like that at a school event with four four-year-olds is just plain ridiculous," she concludes before asking the group members to weigh in. 

"Shouldn't they be more mindful of the young audience they're entertaining? Or am I just an old hag?"

"Can children not just be allowed to be children without some man bringing sex/sexines into it?"

"No, it's not okay," someone immediately reassured. "If they genuinely thought it was okay to yell 'sexy' at young children, then I think they need telling that's not acceptable."

"Bloody heck, can children not just be allowed to be children without some man bringing sex/sexiness into it?!" chimed in another.

"I'd have had a word with one of the teachers and asked what they thought. On a good day, I might go up and quietly to say something to the DJ myself."

"That is revolting," another stated.

"Inform senior leadership, now," someone else concluded. "This is inappropriate."
