be dragged through the mud as well if she DIDN'T say anything And therein lies the real tragedy of this story --- as in many of these cases it will be the VICTIM ( the teacher, not the boys) who gets hounded and pounded and becopmes the focal point of the wrong doing. The boys -- they become "youthful
sexually molest the teacher. or the teacher's 4-year-old daughter. Hmmm, still on the far side of the line where disclosure is the only path.

25th and 50th wedding anniversary Poldark Maximus never considered his XXth wedding anniversay on par with the 1000th hanging ... until today. Useful comment on the conventions of modern life.
