CBS Boston: "Lynch described a phone call she received from the school explaining that the case will be treated like sexual harassment, due to what it considers inappropriate touching.“‘Your son kicked a little boy in the testicles. We call that sexual harassment,’” Lynch said the school told her.
Only in the bizarro world of our current planet Earth could kicking someone in the balls be called "sexual harassment."
In this case, Ms. Lynch says a boy was choking her 7-year-old son and wanted to steal his gloves. Her son responded exactly as he should have: by squaring the guy. The school reacted to that by saying there would be an investigation for sexual harassment because it involved "inappropriate touching."
Cool. Now I understand: when I inappropriately bumped into that guy on the subway, I wasn't trying to get off the subway, I was committing sexual harassment.
I wonder where we get these educators today? At Penn State, a guy literally can't get arrested for raping kids in the shower. In Boston, a kid's up on a sex rap for defending himself. In Vancouver, people are singing the blues and saying "down with bullies" because yet another poor teen killed themselves after being bullied into depression.
Note to schools: your anti-bully campaigns won't do nearly as much good as a lesson from the 7-year-old who aimed for the goal posts with his groin punt. Don't punish him. Let him teach the anti-bullying class.
Who would you trust these days: 7-year-olds who follow their instincts of self preservation, or school administrations that can't protect kids and in fact give the kid hell for protecting himself?
