Hehe. You brute, you.
LOL! I live in rural NC, so I know EXACTLY the mindset you're talking about.
My favorite birthday present.
It may be legal, but it isn’t ethical.
I know, I know. Ethics, shmethics. /s
Should there be a penalty for such a relationship? Yes.
Sexual assault on a CONSENTING ADULT? I think not.
All right. I concede that this is not sexual assault.
I am just getting so tired of reading stories about teachers that are goofing around with their students. Is it really that difficult to find someone your own age, and who is not sitting at a desk in your classroom?
I could see her getting administrative punishment because of her role as a teacher—definitely fire her and rip her teaching credentials. But if she did it with the boy on his 18th birthday? He’s legal. Not a felony, not even a misdemeanor.
And not guilty, either.

It’s not a classroom to them - it’s a buffet table
Guilty. Sentenced to braces.
Hmm - I searched....I failed.
Apologies.
No worries...
” “They’re playing with, not only their career, but their life, marriages. “
And because of this new trend, young horny teenage boys have become bolder in hitting on older women.
Now they think every woman over the age of 25 is a “cougar”, and their flirting is not appreciated by normal women.
Yeah, I feel cheated.
Not Guilty!
Her and Detroit Mayor, Kwame Kilpatrick, need to really think about who might be reading their text messages...
Sweetheart, you have to understand teenage boys. Sometimes the tailpipes of cars look good.
As a former teacher, I’m always horrified when stories like this make the news. A teacher sleeping with a student is about as inappropriate as it gets (except a President sleeping with an intern, but I digress).
That said, I don’t think a sexual assault charge is warranted here. The student was legally an adult, and barring any mental/emotional problems, was able to give consent. Prosecute her on the alcohol offense, revoke her teaching license, and call it a day.
