Moody And Aggressive Child, Rectal Itching. What Is The Reason?

I am concerned that my daughter may be being abused at school. She has recently become more moody and aggressive. the last few days she comes up with reasons that she doesn t want to go to school. Today she told me that her bottom itches after she goes potty. Is there a possibility that something is going on?
