Do you really think a 14 year boy really feels "abused"?

Yes, and the truth is,.. it has a good chance of destroying his entire life with how he relates to women.. He may never look at his own mother or any other loving woman with the same trusting innocence again. Not what you would think of on first blush, it is a very, very sad situation..

[xsmommy]

i bet the poor newlywed husband feels pretty abused....

[mattdono]

Here's a picture of her from High School (sophmore)...

She looks so normal.

[goldstategop]

She wasn't a good role model. Took away the boy's innocence and cheated on her husband. I don't care how beautiful a woman is; a man respects her when she says "no" to his advances when its inappropriate. A man wants to look up to a woman. And there is the husband. I don't know if she was getting back for an affair or neglect in her marriage or simply because she could but she wasn't really thinking about her marriage vows when she was getting it on with a teenage boy in various compromising situations. A marriage is reposed on trust after all but unfortunately sometimes human nature gets in the way of good intentions.

Oh, to have had a junior high teacher like her. She could have really straightened me out.

[goldstategop]

The face that launched a thousand ships. One look and you know she was born to break men's hearts...

She could have really straightened me out

She could have straightened Morford out.

FL is full of sleazy operators - of all types.

Always has been. Dealers, blockade runners, cattlemen, con-artists, foreigners, tourists, real estate scammers, swamp dogs, crackers - they're all here, always have been.

If I were her lawyer, I would try to get as few women on the jury as possible.

You're probably right on that count, because I would find her guilty of statutory rape. I find this women, and what she did to a child, disgusting.

I'm no prude, but this is just not right. How would you men with daughters feel if a hunky male teacher did this to your 14 year old girl?

[Phantom Lord]

I had a teacher who was in Playboy.

[goldstategop]

Agreed. A hunky guy would be lynched doing it to a teenage girl but boys are expected to sow their oats and become a man. The old double standard.

[Blood of Tyrants]

I would kill him.

But in case you haven't noticed, there is a difference between males and females. A male reaches his sexual peak at a much younger age than a female.

How would you men with daughters feel if a hunky male teacher did this to your 14 year old girl?

I'm sorry, but you DO have to admit there is a double standard in this area....

[Dinger]

I thoroughly agree its a double standard but I remember being 14 (12 years ago) and my thought's of her then run about the same as my thoughts of her now, right or wrong.

[presidio9]

How did I know YOU would be the one to post them? lol

Hey, I posted a Kenneth Starr editorial on Clinton from today's Wall St Journal fully 20 mins before this and thus far this thread has received 5 times the number of posts.

[mvpel]

Me too, except it was 25 years previously, and she hadn't aged terribly well.

[goldstategop]

Well with such hottie pictures you rack up posts ad infinitum. LOL

[Lazamataz]

I had a teacher who was in Playboy.

I had one who was in Playgirl.

The 23-year-old reading specialist at Greco Middle School near Ocala, Fla., turned herself into authorities Monday, accompanied by her attorney.

Nice trick. Now that she has turned herself into "the authorities", will she have the responsibility of handling her own case? And how does one change oneself from a lowly teacher's aid into "the authorities"? What was her lawyer's role in this transformation?
