...”Any word on the teacher’s name? or is he safely anonymous, while the student is named?”...
This reminds me of the Old Soviet Union, folks..Remember how speech was monitored and punished and only government sanctioned words and thoughts could be used at that time?..We are just a step from imprisoning people who are politically incorrect at present in the US if they are conservative. The left can say and do whatever it wants but traditional or conservative thinking is punished as often as possible. My heart goes out to this child with so much promise for our society..I cannot imagine what the harsh and, in my mind, abusive actions of this teacher have done to him and his future. This is the perfect example of our America in decline which is being discussed right now and if we do not get rid of our ultra-left leadership, we are toast and will never recover. Everyone will be poor and everyone will be abused. Child abuse has been a concern of mine for a long time and I have just read the most haunting book of child sexual abuse and it’s consequences for the victim, ever..THE END OF THE WORLD AS WE KNOW IT by Robert Goolrick..It is hard reading but is very descriptive of the family dynamics and the societal dynamics which allow this to happen too often and to be cleverly covered up, leaving the victim to suffer terribly for a lifetime. After reading this book, I ended up wanting capital punishment for every proven child sexual preditor out there. Sorry, but the destruction these people leave behind them is more traumatic for the victim than almost any other event or ill you can fathom..I am determined to become more involved in this issue. And, I hope the teacher who abused this little boy in that Texas classroom will be relieved of his certificaiton to teach.
