Sick beyond belief. The parents did the right thing: pull the kid out of school and go somewhere else. Move out of state if you have to. This must not be tolerated any longer.
My 7 year old Grandson last year in K-Garten was hugged by a classmate upon going to her house for a Birthday party. As his Mom told me the story about the little girl running out to the curb to greet Justin with a hug....he looked over at me and said: "Grandpa...girls like me". I assured him I understood and had been putting up with that sort of adoration since I was his age...and was quick to point out it never ends and he was probably going to have to do likewise.....given his lineage...(LOL)
