I find it absolutely absurd that a six year old boy is accused of sexual harassment. As a matter of fact, my personal opinion is that the adults responsible for this fiasco are unfit to be in any school system anywhere.

After seeing the mother of the six-year old alleged sexual harasser on the late night news, I am left with more questions about the teacher who reported the sexual harassment incident?

Something is obviously wrong with the way all these school officials perceive six year old, first graders to be. There is also something wrong with this school official’s application of the definition of sexual harassment.

If there was ever a social reason NOT to have children, the belief by school authorities that a six year old can comprehend sexual harassment is IT.

If I planned to have children in this day and time, I don’t think I would want to be sending any child of mine to any school that is so irresponsible, and threatened by perfectly natural child behavior.

One of the arguments against Home Schooling is that a child will not be properly socialized in a home environment where there is limited contact with other children their own age. The socialization argument against home schooling pales when a parent has to risk their six year old being accused of sexual harassment by a school’s administration.

I actually feel sorry for parents today.
