The editor sucks.
No its not. This has been posted before the little girl is in diapers and school has to change her. False outrage by “loving” Mom probably to pocket some cash. Disgusting really when the girl must have gotten Herpes from her Mommy dearest.
Where’s the “diaper” version of the story? I haven’t seen it.
Thanks.
A 6 year old boy gets suspended for kissing a classmate and the nurse here molests a girl?
heres what this story left out.
The girl’s mother, Brandy Madden, says she later found out about the strip search and has decided to file a lawsuit against the district because she never gave consent to the search. Madden is suing for all medical expenses, past and future, and says that the unwarranted searches caused emotional distress, suffering, and embarrassment.
The school has responded, however, claiming that the young girl, who has special needs, still wears a diaper at five years old and that the searches only occurred when the nurse changed her diaper. The statement claims that the girl was, “unable to self-toilet and was therefore dependent upon school officials to change her diaper.”
“…This child had a diminished expectation of privacy such that any routine examination that school officials may have conducted during the course of routine diaper changing would not have violated any clearly established rights of the child,” continued the school in their statement.
Madden also claims that she lost her job due to missing a number of workdays in order to deal with the situation. The lawsuit is still unresolved.
that is important information and changes the situation.
This boy had other behavioral issues and it was not the first time that he has difficulty respecting the boundaries of personal space with others. He had been warned on at least two previous occasions.
The local news had not picked that up. You would think a nurse would be more professional.
How do any of us know how professional or unprofessional the nurse was? Right now we are talking the word of a news source taking the word of the mother who has already been caught in one lie. I don't consider changing the diaper of a special needs child strip searching.
You would think a nurse would be more professional.
The professional part I was referring to was the paperwork and procedures to avoid something like this.
The mother and her OB/GYN may be to blame, as most cases of this could be prevented by c-section for delivery. Less than 3% of kids with this can contract it via in-utero. Sad.
That was my first thought ... where does a 5 year old get genital Herpes????
Okay I wanna know how does a child this young get herpes anyway? That is a sexually transmitted disease and you carry that forever like luggage.
IIRC An IEP (individual Education Plan) is created for each special needs child before entry into a school. The IEP outlines what services are to be provided and who is responsible. Some schools have aids that are responsible for feeding, changing, etc.. Others have the school nurse do it, depending on the number of students in the population.
If this is in the IEP then the mother doesn't have a leg to stand on, and I can't imagine a school that would not have an IEP for a five year old still wearing diapers.
Not trying to be funny by asking, under what scenario does she spread this?
How does a five year old contract genital herpes? And from whom?
IIRC An IEP (individual Education Plan)?
It seems like this should include and inform the parents also. PTA used to be meetings with teachers where parents and teachers worked together. Now it seems that the feral government has gone wild in a power grab and edge parents out of education.
Federal law requires that parents know and agree to any and all accommodations.
