Just in case you missed one more example of such foolishness. Do
note the conclusions in next to last paragraph. In particular the
notion of the boys permanent record.4 -year-old Accused of Improperly Touching TeacherDec 8, 2006 11:51 PM
http://www.kxxv.com/Global/story.asp?S=5785699by Jennifer KentBELLMEAD- A four-year-old hugged his teachers aide and was
put into in-school suspension, according to the father. But La
Vega school administrators have a different story.Damarcus Blackwell's four-year-old son was lining-up to get on
the bus after school last month, when he was accused of rubbing
his face in the chest of a female employee.The prinicipal of La Vega Primary School sent a letter to the
Blackwells that said the pre-kindergartener demonstrated
"inappropriate physical behavior interpreted as sexual contact and/
or sexual harassment." Blackwell says it's ridiculous that the aide would misread a hug
from a four-year-old. Blackwell wrote to administrators
demanding that the whole incident be expunged from his son's
academic file because his son is too young to know what it means
to act sexually.David Davis, the executive director of the Advocacy Center in Waco
tends to agree with Blackwell. He says assuming the boy has not
had sexual encounters, or been inappropriately exposed to
pornography, most four-year-olds are sexually innocent.Blackwell got a response from the La Vega administration. The
sexual references on the discipline referral were removed. But the
thing that makes Blackwell most upset is they told him "your
request for an apology by the aide and removal of all paperwork
regarding this incident is denied." Now the young student's file will
refer to the incident as "inappropriate physical contact." And
Blackwell says he will continue to fight the district.La Vega I.S.D. administrators told News Channel 25 they couldn't
comment on this case because of student privacy issues.
