Try as you might, Protagoras, you'll not get me to click Report Abuse.

Nice try. But since there has only been light thrown on the subject, and absolutely no abuse, it's irrelevent.

That is my last word on the subject in this thread.

Promise?

when i was in high school (late 70's) we had 4 girls from our school that as soon as they graduated they married teachers they had in school. i was appalled then, now that i am a parent, wife and school board trustee, i am more than appalled - the teachers should have been strung up by their *****! to use their position of authority, they violated the trust of those girls and their parents. every single one ended in divorce with a few short years.

It's a really good idea. Billy Graham, in his wisdom, never allowed himself to be alone in a room with a woman who was not his wife. It was a rule he followed very carefully. No accusation of untoward contact was ever made against this great evangelist. He was a wise man.

i have always taught my kids this principal, but have not limited it to members of the opposite sex. when they have friends over, regardless of who they are, the door has to remain ajar, and i frequently walk in unannouced. i constantly impress on my 19 yr old the need to never be completely alone with any of his female friends, especially the girls who are younger than he is. i teach it as "avoiding even the appearance of evil" in that no one can ever accuse him of inappropriate behavior towards a young lady.

as far as the open doors with friends, when i was in jr high i used to spend the night with a friend who molested me at night (behind closed doors) while her mom was in the next room. i never want my kids to go through that!

Thank you. My only intent was to remind some that stupidity is not the sole province of the Catholic church
