A Brockton first-grader was suspended from school for three days last month after school officials said that he sexually harassed a girl in his class.
NewsCenter 5's Jim Boyd reported Tuesday that officials at the Downey Elementary School called the boy's mother, Berthena Dorinvil, on Jan. 30, and asked her to pick up her child from the school. Dorinvil said that officials told her that her son was being suspended for sexually harassing a 6-year-old female classmate.
"My son told me that the girl touched him first, so he touched her back," Dorinvil said. "I was shocked. I was crying. I was out of control," Dorinvil said.
School officials would not speak on camera, and police officers were posted at the school Tuesday afternoon. The school superintendent released a statement that said, "The safety and well-being of Brockton public school students and staff is of the utmost important to us, and we take all allegations of sexual harassment seriously."
Dorinvil has asked school officials to transfer her son to another school, but officials have not agreed to her request.

How long is it going to take this society to take back their schools? First the sex ed in Kindergarten class now this. These "Educators" are guilty of Child Abuse and should be banned from ever being allowed within 50 feet of a kid ever again.

It is compounded when they call you Berthena Dorinvil, that really has to hurt.

The child was found guilty of being a boy in a public school.

"The safety and well-being of Brockton public school students and staff is of the utmost important to us, and we take all allegations of sexual harassment seriously." Can common sense be tested?

Total liberal insanity. Combine this with the liberalized judicial system, the liberalized educations system, and we have an America that is a major embarassment, and fits among the nations of the EU....barf bucket please.
The greatness of America continues to wane.

I don't know who touched who first or where but this mother has ISSUES:
"My son told me that the girl touched him first, so he touched her back," Dorinvil said. "I was shocked. I was crying. I was out of control," Dorinvil said.
It's no wonder the kid is screwed up!
