Thank you for this post. In particular, I am glad to see that parents are asking for maximums and that victims are calling this abuse what it is.
This type of devastation is hard to recover from
I know a HS coach who married one of his students. They have a long-term marriage and three boys.
In these cases I suppose the age of consent plays a more serious part than the teacher-student relationship taboo. In Alabama the age of consent is 16. If a teacher makes a move on a 17 year old student I guess he is in a lot less trouble than if he is moving in on a 15 year old.
