Six Year Old Boy Expelled for Sexual Harrassment

Gee, what Helen said is right on.

 

Actually, I think you are out of touch with human nature. Being Christian does not guarantee that you won't make stupid decisions from time to time. And being a non-Christian does not preclude you from having some common sense.

Without knowing the whole situation and any background on either of the children, it's interesting to see people making firm decisions one way or the other.

As nice as it sounds, kids aren't always innocent. I could give you many examples, but here's two.
We had a neighbor who heard her very young toddler scream and found the five year old neighbor boy raping her.

I used to care for a little boy whose parents had exposed him to pornography in a couple of forms, and I can tell you that he was NOT innocent.

There are sick, disgusting, putrid parents who think it's funny and cute to expose kids to this stuff or to encourage sexual behavior in them.

To refer the case doesn't mean they wanted the little kid arrested and tried in front of a jury. It means they think there's something there that needs court action, and if deemed worthy of consideration, they will charge the PARENTS and order some type of intervention for the child.

Maybe it was just a stupid over-reaction. Judging from behavior from such people in the past, it probably was. I HOPE it was. That's so much better than the alternative.

But...we don't know. We probably have 25% of the whole story, and that's simply not enough to judge anyone on. (unless you're CPS, and then it's perfectly legal and perfectly likely...)

 

From the news story:

He was accused of putting two fingers inside a female classmate's waistband and touching her skin.

It sounds to me like they were playing on the playground and he grabbed her waistband, two fingers touched her back, that is NOT reaching "his hand inside the little girl's pants" or inappropriately touching. This is just another case of the government schools zero tolerance policies gone crazy. Wether or not God is in the school, if the teachers and school officials don't use common sense and just blindly follow zero tolerance policies we will continue to see stupid things like this in the news.

 

I agree.
