This is just sick. What is our world coming to that we are allowing this kind of depravity to go on unchecked? We just had a very public trial of a coach who abused a player for years. His response on the stand of if he had sexual intercourse with this girl-He couldn't recall. How in the h*ll can you not recall screwing a 13 year old girl? But yet it was this girl who was trashed in the media, and ultimately despite all the evidence the guy got off.

The young teacher hung his head, avoiding eye contact. Yes, he had touched a fifth-grader's breast during recess. "I guess it was just lust of the flesh," he told his boss.
That got Gary C. Lindsey fired from his first teaching job in Oelwein, Iowa. But it didn't end his career. He taught for decades in Illinois and Iowa, fending off at least a half-dozen more abuse accusations.
When he finally surrendered his teaching license in 2004 - 40 years after that first little girl came forward - it wasn't a principal or a state agency that ended his career. It was one persistent victim and her parents.

To answer your question. This country learned how to get off and
commit perjury from the testimony of the Clintons. It was amazing
how little they recalled and how much they got away with.
How many of our presidential candidates are not lawyers?
It is indeed frightening what our country is turning into..... -
So true, and along with that these children were not having oral sex in school until clinton opened that door and got away with it too. I mean if the pres can do it and get away with it why can't we
-
Remember when you would be proud if your daughters went to
work in the Whitehouse? When my oldest turns 18 Hillary may
be on her second term, Bill won't really have a job, except to
go around sexually assaulting women. I feel sorry for the father
of the interns that work there. He will know his daughter is
not safe and that Bill will get a pass...
Even Nixon had the honor to resign and did not use his power for
sexual gain. Even JFK was a gentleman in the Oval office. Its amazing
Hillary is the frontrunner. How does a woman give her husband so much
leeway in a marriage? Will she have a lesbian lover in the Whitehouse?
Thats the only way I can figure her, it has to be a marriage just for
profesional gain...... -
I'm sure that's the only reason they're married. A woman like Hillary wears the pants!
The whole thing has to have every other country laughing at the idea that America would even think of having someone like that in office....again

Luckily, I'm a stronger influence in my children's lives than any president.

Yea, this is getting to be a bad problem. Where were the beautiful women teachers when I was 15? I certainly, at that age, would not have called it rape, LOL. Weird thing is, it's getting to where more WOMEN do it than men...ummmm, WTF? Used to be mainly men.
-
No it is still overwhelmingly the men doing it according to the study, they just don't get the media attention that the hot female teachers do. Personally I think the scarier story is the one that we don't see, the teachers who are pursued by the students and the unfounded allegations that ruin careers. Kids know that they hold the power and they can ruin our lives with one little concoction.
-
That is so very true. When we had our foster daughter, our instructor for our licensing, told my husband to NEVER be alone with her, EVER, because the state would back her all the way, even if the allegation was untrue. It never happened to us, she never did pull anything, but believe me, its always in the back of your mind.
-
I have actually had kids acknowledge that if they got mad at me, they would just make something up to get me into trouble. I had one problem child last year that took my cell phone, shoved it down his pants, and took a picture. He then made a big deal of "look at the picture that Miss C has on her phone".
