"Give that boy a medal."

WACO, Texas — School administrators gave a 4-year-old student an in-school suspension for inappropriately touching a teacher's aide after the pre-kindergartner hugged the woman.
A letter from La Vega school district administrators to the student's parents said that the boy was involved in "inappropriate physical behavior interpreted as sexual contact and/or sexual harassment" after he hugged the woman and he "rubbed his face in the chest of (the) female employee" on Nov. 10.
DaMarcus Blackwell, the father of the boy who attends La Vega Primary School, said he filed a complaint with the district. He said that his son doesn't understand why he was punished.
"When I got that letter, my world flipped," Blackwell said in a story in today's editions of the Waco Tribune-Herald.
La Vega school district officials said student privacy laws prevented them from commenting.
After Blackwell filed a complaint, a subsequent letter from the district said the offense had been changed to "inappropriate physical contact" and removed references of sexual contact or sexual harassment from the boy's file.
Administrators said the district's student handbook contains no specific guidelines referring to contact between teachers and students but does state that inappropriate physical contact will result in a discipline referral.
The La Vega school district, which has five schools, covers about 30 miles around Waco.
I think this woman is in the wrong profession. So is the principal.
If her chest is the same height as the child's head, his head brushing up against her chest is bound to happen during a hug.
For cryin' out loud.
Well unless the kid had his tongue out and was going "hubba hubba hubba" I'd have to agree...
I've never heard of this happening in mexico
It's about time liberal judges start cracking down on these sexual predators.A sentece of 10 to 12 years behind bars should set this 4 year old straight !!!
LOL
I have seen some large inner-city-lack-of-discipline kids who were acting-out MTV videos.
VERY inappropriate.
Ah, Waco. The parent might as well start stocking arms and digging tank traps. And bring in fire extinguishers. LOTS of fire extinguishers.
Wasn't hugging.
Unkless of course the child was heard during the alleged event to say "brrrrrrrrrrrrrrromski!" Then all bets are off and the dad needs a talkin' to.
Wasn't "brushing." This wasn't a tiny, little 4-year-old. This was a kid performing a vulgarity he learned at home.
Why?
"Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached." -Manuel II Paleologus
Don't the far Left want all the 3 and 4 year olds in Pre-K all day long rather than at home with their mothers? This is what you're going to get...
If a woman has such a reaction of revulsion to a little kid...I would, at least, have an uneasy feeling.
Some "little kids" these days are raised in very vulgar surroundings.
