Gracious Lord....look how quickly some are blaming the victim.

People, just look at him! The teacher is HUGE...and even if he were not so physically overpowering, pedophiles are experts at choosing targets they can intimidate and control. Shame and fear are powerful silencers. Is it any wonder a boy would endured this exploitation alone, when even people who should know better wonder why he didn't say something sooner?

Blame the criminal, not the child.

Sounds like the comments on an Elizabeth Smart story.

Shame

EXACTLY. When I was a young teen I was molested by an older man. I didn't tell my parents until the guy was caught molesting another young girl. If that hadn't happened I NEVER would have told my parents because I was too embarrassed.
