We had male and female teachers and a priest. Those were the known and out in the open ones but that was in the days where if the kids weren’t complaining (and these weren’t) then nothing was done to stop it. Not condoning it by any means but that was how it was.

OTOH, kids these days know all they have to do is call the cops or CPS claiming someone looked at them in an unfortable way and they’ve ruined that person’s life forever. It’s easy revenge for a bad grade or they didn’t get the lead in theater arts or didn’t get to play first string or any other supposed slight.

“OTOH, kids these days know all they have to do is call the cops or CPS claiming someone looked at them in an unfortable way and they’ve ruined that person’s life forever.”

You raise a good point except for one thing. Back in my day a kid would call CPS and claim a person, say a parent or teacher was physically abusing him/her. By this I don’t mean sexually I mean hitting. In Junior High we actually had a teacher who would slam kids against the wall. One parent even came to the school and tried to raise hell but nothing I know of was ever done to that teacher. Unions I guess.

Point is no kid ever said “sexual abuse” so that begs a question who put that in their heads? Maybe the schools shouldn’t be teaching them so much about sex so early? (well actually the schools should not teach them about sex at all but...) Now it’s backfired and now the kids use it to their advantage in some cases.
