Rape. It was rape. Call it what it is. The longer we tiptoe around teachers having sex with kids, the longer the problem will exist. She raped a kid.

I don't get this. Not even high school girls find high school boys attractive. How could a grown woman? And what's with the language, the word is raped or sexually abused/assaulted, 16 year old here is assumed unable to consent to sex with any adult.

How stupid do you have to be to tell a coworker that you raped a kid. Hey, how was your weekend? Guess what I did that's super illegal?

As someone who works IT at a school, this is far too common. I've ignored many a new teacher coming up to me with questions because I thought they were students, and I ignore students at all cost. This has happened in the intermediate buildings. You just can't know how old anyone is anymore, so I assume everyone is underage until proven beyond a shadow of a doubt.

How are so many people incapable of doing the literally most obvious and easy task of "do not fuck children" JFC.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 hours ago

Yeah, but unfortunately the people that are predisposed to fucking the children kind of seek the roles out. That or the amount of power it takes to poison some people is much lower than I thought, but I don't want to consider that.
