Something really bothering me with this thread.
Any of us who knew Troutly were ready to cut off his nut sac for doing EXACTLY the same thing to his niece as these teachers ( people in a position of trust and authority ) did to these kids and teens.
Why is it acceptable to many of you when its done by a "hot" female to a young boy but disgusting when its a male to a young female?
Child molestation is child molestation, any way you look at it.
Two 14 or 15 yr old kids "exploring" sex is not the same as some 30 something divorcee screwing a 14 yr old boy.
How would you feel if you found out your junior school aged son was raped by his teacher? Would you tell him you were proud of him?
I really hope that for the most part, you fellows are talking out of your azz because if not, I seriously question your moral standards.
No, I was not diddled by a teacher as a child but a close childhood friend of mine was when he was 13. He felt dirty and corrupt and sick for years. He spent countless Saturdays at councelling when he should have been hanging out with his friends but he found he couldn't face them the same way as he had prior.
Kids will be kids and he was often jokingly called a mother f er etc.
He commited suicide at 17.
