A 10 year old boy from Atlanta was forced by classmates to the floor to kiss and lick his teachers feet however the teacher has been cleared of any criminal intent!

---

Surely this teacher was legally responsible the child was in her care. That is without the harm she caused to the other children involved by encouraging it.

Outrageous. What the hell is going on here?

So it's not child abuse because there was no sexual gratification, eh? It seems to me that Georgia needs to rewrite their child abuse laws.

Shameful.

Heavens forbid. I can't believe this story even got into the media. It's so obviously blown out of proportion that it's comical.

eh?

WTF. She's the teacher, she has the authority to stop it - why would she allow the children to continue on so as to make him lick and kiss her feet?

I don't th ink the issue is about the contact between her and the student - it's about the fact that students forcibly made him do something to HER and she didn't do anything to stop it - rather joked about it and gave him candy?



If that happened to my daughter, I'd be seriously pissed off.

Granted, the story is strange, but I don't care what circumstances lead to me reading about a student being restrained and licking a teacher's toes. That cold shouldn't have happened.

EDIT: I also don't care how wacky those crazy, wild, zany kids are that were involved in this. If this was a joke, it's not funny. That kid will forever be "the kid who licks toes". He will probably have subservience problems in his career / sex life later on.

Maybe blown out of proportion, Sim, but it does bring up a good point about what's necessary for something to constitute child abuse (There being sexual gratification involved).

the teacher should be forced to lick the childs ass right after the child went poo poo ..that will teach the so called teacher that you can NOT force anything on anyone!!!!

Ok, Im pulling the BS card on this one.

If this were true it would be more than just WND.

And the story/article sounds more like a play in the way it is written.....

Im I the only one to notice this?

Not my story, but I found more sources.

The mother only found out about it by reading the boy's yearbook signatures. Happened in February.

Zip

I didn't read the articles... was just wondering what the teacher looks like...


I'd be upset if my kid came home and this had happened to them. Its unexcusible... doesn't matter if the other kids made him do it or not.. the teacher is in charge and there never should have been a discussion of this type to start with... licking toes to get candy...

YUMMY!!!!!!!



Kissing a teacher's foot is better than getting swats, or licks, or whatever other word we all used for corporal punishment.

Peace

There are generators

And again, an example

Sheesh. Post some real news.

There are people supporting this biatch

Holy Deja-Vu Batman! Isn't that the exact reaction neigbors have after some guy shotguns his whole family, or some priest rapes half the kids in his congregation. Seems the news always looks for the most gullible moron in the crowd to interview, never the person who says "I never trusted that person, always knews they were off somehow, I hate to be right like this, with this tragedy now, but...I did warn people"



Thats right crazy pervert stay away from the kids!!



Not know what's appropriate? What? WTF?!?!?! Try, kids tongues and teachers should not mix, unless he/she's sixteen, then its perfectly legal in Georgia, or they can get married to an adult at 14, but ...some woman was arrested for getting pregnant in Georgia from her 14 year old husband...go figure, can get married but not get pregnant. That state is a backwater.

I tell you, I ever find out some kids force my daughter to do something, I'm not going to complain to anyone, I'm just going to get revenge.
As we can see from this news story, the 'systems' automatic response is to protect itself, cover up, deny any wrong doing. Paper pushing pencil neck pricks!

Someone really should find out whats in the water in Georgia, and keep their teachers away from it.

Why does this get national attention? Well compare it with Blaire attacking the "hoodies problem." May one also add and its "reaction-solution?"

This kind of news article shows the total lack of priorities, and it is another deep plunge into irrelevance. Yes I could care less about a story like this, and it does not even deserve a backpage footnote.

Its just an excuse for peeps with no life to come in here and act all self righteous. Its so cliche, like "no dark sarcasims in the classroom.."

I agree. Stop wasting our community memory space and start reporting real news!

anyone who added a funny spin on this story so sick can only laugh at it.

as a previous poster showed this is a genuine story.

To those who say this isnt 'news' or dosnt deserve discussion. Well firstly it brings questions into focus on the rights of children. IMHO Human Rights are among the most important thing we have, especially for children.

Secondly it brings into focus the responsibilities and boundaries of those charged with caring for peoples children, for vulnerable people.

Thirdly it highlights the legal systems view of the behaviour of those responsible for children.

Lastly the actual debate about this incident both on hear and the lack of cover of this story brings into focus some issues to do with society at the moment and how they veiw children

Sorry there wasnt enough important aspects to this event.
