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!

I just sent this article to a friend of mine with the comment, "Is it even possible for first-graders to sexually harass each other?"

This could be a perfectly normal mother who's been turned upside-down because she never dreamed that her six-year-old (SIX years old, fer cryin' out loud!) could be accused of such a thing. If it were my kid, methinks I'd be a bit "out of control" as well.

My son got pushed into a girl who didn't like him once, she was BEHIND him, and she complained about the same thing. I was pretty upset, too. Law requires every incident to be documented to determine if there is a pattern of abuse so if someone has it in for someone else, they can ruin a persons life just by accusations. It doesn't matter if there is any truth to it or any witnesses or anything. It's just her word. Fortunately, the adult in charge knew what was going on and put a stop to it; she actually had a talk with the girls but it's pretty scary how an innocent event can be turned into a life destroying situation. BTW, this happened in a crowd so there were people around who saw it.

The other problem with this whole sexual harrassment thing is that they push all this info about sex on kids at an age when it's NOT appropriate and then when kids do what kids do, act on the information that they WOULD NOT HAVE THOUGHT OF THEMSELVES ON THIER OWN, they get nailed for it. These idiot educators and liberals are creating the very problems they're condemning. They expose little kids to all this stuff and then make them criminals for even giving someone a hug. Kids need hugs, it's NOT sexual harrassment. The real stuff needs to be dealt with swiftly and firmly, but these folks need to get a grip.
As far as the boy *touched* the girl, we don't know what that means. Since a teacher risks sexual harrassment charges for even giving a kid a hug or pat on the back, it could be nothing more than that. Or it could be that the kid just wanted to see what kind of reaction he'd get from the adults; kids are always crossing the line. Or there could be a real problem.
I don't blame the mother for being upset, either.
