Way back in my day, the P.E. teacher who impregnated a senior MARRIED her.

[pandoraou812]

[redrunner]

There must be a lot of it going on if there is a group called "Stop Educator Sexual Abuse, Misconduct and Exploitation."

SESAME? I think most people dream up "task forces" just so they can have a cool acronym. I got tired of the cutesy names a long, long time ago. There's probably an acronym task force that gets paid to sit around and think up new acronyms.

If only teachers were allowed to get married, this wouldn’t happen.

"Did you know that in Nevada, a person who sexually assaults a dead body is guilty of a Class A felony and is required to register as a sex offender, but a person who commits a sex offense on a child, someone who abuses their position as a trusted authority figure to abuse a child, that person is not required to register? This is sick," Miller said.

Seems Ms. Miller is a bit of a a drama queen. First of all, a seventeen year old is not a child, as indicated by the fact that in this state the age of consent is sixteen. Second, why should an act that is otherwise perfectly legal suddenly become a serious felony simply due to where you work? If the age of consent is 16, sex with a 16, 17, or 18 year old studen should be grounds for firing, not grounds for prison. Third, is it really so shocking that the law considers somebody that enjoys sex with dead bodies a bit more sick and dangerous than somebody that enjoys sex with nubile seventeen year olds?

[redrunner]

Or you could change the age of consent, like Kentucky... http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1944774/posts

The other day someone brought up the factoid that, after 5 years, 92% of education school graduates are doing something other than teaching school. Nowadays, it seems like the only people who stick with the teaching profession are the child molestors.

Give then a break. After all, as their union puts it: Acronym Creators Must Eat.

ANOTHER REASON TO HOMESCHOOL

This ping list is for the “other” articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. If you want on/off this list, please freepmail me. The main Homeschool Ping List by DaveLoneRanger handles the homeschool-specific articles. This is becoming a fairly high volume list.

I will likely be cutting back on pinging these types of threads. Unless there's a conviction or the kind of substantial evidence released as in this case, I can't see pinging every single instance, there's just way too many.

I also am a bit concerned about the chance that there could be false accusations. I'd rather be on the cautious side than contribute to ruining someone's reputation even further. If there's been a conviction, I have no qualms about pinging it, but otherwise, I'll take them on a case by case basis.

There are certain stories that just get to be too common to report on. News of the Weird has announced they won’t report stories where squirrels chew through power cables, for example!

Yeah, but let that squirrel impregnate a utility worker trying to repair those cables, and see how fast it makes Page One!
