“Better managing and supervising them..”
Kindergarten aged kids can usually go to the restroom by themselves. IMHO, the teacher can’t be in two places at the same time. When my kids were that age, they asked to go to the restroom, granted permission and then took a “pass”. The only way this teacher could keep an eye on the kids every second of the day would be to NOT permit bathroom breaks unless everyone goes at the same time. If that occurred, there would definitely be “accidents” and the teacher would be in trouble for that as well. I have the strong feeling that the investigation will turn up either child molestation at home (or elsewhere) or some other type of visual behavior (porn etc).
It sounded like this classroom has its own bathroom
Can’t use common sense with most people. I expect that most here went to school in a one room school house in the 1800s by the way the remember their life.
Kids are difficult to manage. Today with the no child left behind BS each class has 2 or 3 students that take 80+% of the teachers tie. The rest are left on their own to scrape out a lesson or an education. Any child seeking an adventure can do so.
As far as 5 year old knowing about sex, many see what’s on TV, internet, older siblings, or possible bad/dangerous parents. When I was a child, I was very I interested in the opposite sex and I didn’t know why. I wanted to play doctor, show and tell,.... I had wonderful very prudish parents but I knew what my brain/body wanted at an early age. Fear of punishment kept me in line. That’s gone mostly today society - no consequences anymore. I didn’t know what sex was, but I remember I was about 5 or 6 when I realized that tab A was supposed to go in slot B. Again, maybe I was unique or unusual but I don’t think so and I didn’t have a corrupt childhood.
My guess is they we playing doctor/ having show and tell and the adults labeled it sex. Curiosity is natural. ‘Perverts corrupt that curiosity and label natural as unnatural. JMHO
