A former South Carolina teacher was arrested Wednesday for preying on a 17-year-old high school football player, according to a local news station.
Married mother-of-two Reagan Anderson, 27, is facing two counts of sexual battery on a Holly Hill Academy student for the alleged abuse, WCSC reported.
The alleged victim's mother blasted Anderson at a bond hearing on Thursday.
"A trusted coach, teacher and friend that abused our trust and violated her oath as an educator. She has ruined our son's life," the teen's mother read from a statement in court.
"He should be 100% focused on being a fun-loving football-playing young man, but this predator has robbed him of that ability. No young quarterback or athlete is safe in our community if this woman is free," the outraged mother continued.
The judge set Anderson's bond at $2,500 and told her not to have any contact with the victim or his family. She was released with a GPS monitor the same day.

There are a couple of very elastic clauses:
“including but not limited to”
and
“directly or indirectly.”
If she was not his teacher I would not be concerned with the age difference. A 17 year old (unless coerced, threatened, incapacitated,or otherwise not in control is able to consent to sexual activity). The problem here is the inherent power imbalance. She had too much authority over him. Had she waited to have a relationship after he left school that would be fine.
Gaging by many of the comments here, it appears that sex between a teacher and student is commendable. As long as the perp is “good looking and female”
That has become the standard response. Even when the victim is well underage.
And one even going so far as to condemn the mother of this student, and suggesting her parental rights should be terminated and this child should be turned over to “foster care” Simply for speaking out against this.
You bet, at that age it is all they think about. To this day the best line for a recruiter to spout is “you can get a sports car and hot chicks if you join up”.
Done, where do I sign?
“Do you want to think about it a few days?”
No,,, Where do I sign... I want to sign right now.
And perverts pursuing boys has been going on since the beginning of time.
What's your point?
The fact something's been going on ... forever is NOT a justification. If it was the story of Cain and Able would justify and excuse murder. It doesn't.
This article isn't about men pursuing women or women pursuing men. That phrase doesn't offer justification anymore Hamas rapists can be excused because 'since the beginning of time, "men have been pursuing women". Gimme a break. You're a smart person Tabasco - you know better ...
Military recruiters can advantage of kids this age by pushing hot girls like uniforms and you can get a lot of sex.
I don’t see much difference here when discussing taking advantage of a minor...
This teacher wasn’t going to possibly get him killed like the recruiter does.
That I might agree with, but some relationships might have been lost before the kid came around and some couples might get off on the kink.
Huh?!
Regards,
My young Spanish teacher was an achingly lovely distraction even to the stories she told of living in Barcelona, the exceptionally dark skies of Toledo and seeing the palace and fortress of The Alhambra. Her wraparound skirts...
Yes, I failed Spanish and the only guy who didn't was probably gay.
To make it more analogous in this case, it would have to be a 17 year old girl.
I wish Free Republic was a conservative, faith-based, family-friendly forum where members didn’t celebrate a minor boy engaging in adultery with a married woman.
I guess that’s just too much to ask. But Hell is real. So, there’s that.
proof your handle is apt
**BS, the kid has great memories that will last a lifetime.**
Yeah, that he can share with his girlfriend, the fiance, then his wife. Idiot.
I thank God I have only memories of full intimacy with my wife. No comparisons to past experiences, no wife wondering how she really ‘stacks up’ to previous orgasm partners.
And if the kid was a male.
Then he is *lucky*.
If it were female/female, male/male/, or male teacher with female student, many of the same would be screaming for the teacher's head on a silver platter.
God expects sexual purity of both men and women, and it's NOT ok for a woman to take advantage of a teen guy simply because he is working on teen sex hormone levels.
Wrong is still wrong and aside from the obvious danger of him picking up some STD from the tryst, it DOES have an effect on him and can damage future relationships. That encounter can never be undone or unremembered and he will always carry part of that into any future relationship he has with a woman. If he marries, all other previous encounters will forever be part of that marriage, whether he wants them to or not.
And no worrying about some disease you picked up somewhere from someone else.
Your wife is a fortunate woman to have found a man with character and integrity that she doesn’t have to share with anyone else.

FWIW, any woman worth her salt wants that, too. Women DO care about sexual purity in their spouses and are impressed that a man has the character and integrity to wait for marriage. It goes a long way to giving her confidence that he is much more unlikely to cheat on her. that gives her a LOT of security in your love for her.
Correct. That said. Both sexes are different. A man is hardwired to spread his seed while a woman needs to stay put to raise her offspring.
Example number n+1 of a trashy school teacher who acts out and does not know boundaries.
Just wow. What are you doing on a conservative forum advocating for the government intrusion into a family's life because they want to protect their son from stupid life choices?
Do you also think that parents trying to protect their kids from the transgender movement or homosexual predators should be stripped of their parental rights as well?
Looks like you do not believe in limited government nor moral behavior. What is your DU handle?
