His life is ruined.

Did he really do it?

Who cares? Let’s bring out the pitchforks!

If it’s true...how do these dudes think they’re going to get by with it? I wonder how many actually DO get by with it because it goes unreported. Why would you take a chance on your freedom for the next 20 years on a teenager keeping quiet?

“If it’s true...how do these dudes think they’re going to get by with it? I wonder how many actually DO get by with it because it goes unreported. “

Two very good questions followed by “How long has this been going on?”

“Fischer is accused of having a sexual relationship with a 14-year-old female student for several months in 2009, Littleton police said.”

When I was in high school a few of the gossips suspected that a particular girl was overly friendly with one of the teachers. He had to be in his 40s, and not a youthful 40 something either. A few months after graduation they got married. Score one for the gossips.

Your story is very, uh, nice...but this thread is about a 14 year old. How many 14 year-old girls want to marry a 40 year old (and not a youthful 40)?

Oh cmon we need a picture to see if he’s “guilty or not guilty”. She’s lucky right? I mean that’s what we see on these threads when the child is a boy.

All that is necessary is for someone to CLAIM something happened and all hell breaks loose, the teacher is “guilty” immediately. Mind you, I am NOT saying this, and a hundred other incidents like it, didn’t actually happen, I’m saying he/she gets “accused” and their life is over.

True. Any accusal ends his future. Period. Guilty or not. He’s ruined. I know of a teacher who was accused and everyone knew the little twit was lying but the cops hounded him to no end. The court wanted to make him an example but knew there wasn’t any evidence so delayed, delayed, delayed his hearing just to create a living hell for him and his family. He put an end to it and his life one afternoon. A few days later, his accuser put it out on social network nothing had ever happened.

Porn distorts the mind. That’s why you need an anchor like Christ. Plus, pedos are attracted to kids, so you’d expect to find them in schools. Do schools even screen for pedophilia?

Oh, those fun-loving “educators”. Further reason to home-school.

ANOTHER REASON TO HOMESCHOOL

This ping list is for the “other” articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)

The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.

Nobody wants to hear that. Panic is so much more fun. That’s why evil people like Janet Reno (& it’s bipartisan) never paid a price for the dozens of lives they ruined. Most Americans are blissfully unaware how often these charges are bogus. Or, they just don’t care.

I don’t know that my story was “nice” as much as it was unusual, but it did involve a twist on a relationship between a teacher and a student which is why I brought it up. The girl in this case would have been 17 and the teacher in his 40s.

Is there a drug test for that? How about a brain scan using the mind meld machine?

Believe it our not in Illinois the Department of Children and Family Services will hook you up to a monitor to check your reactions if you’re accused of being a pedophile. They then show you child porn. Welcome to Ill-Annoy where every solution is its own problem.
