yeah, seems Arkansas is illegal.... I don't have issues with that. Check local and state laws is all I can say the registry does have MAJOR flaws and questioning it is taboo because noone ever wants to be accused of "supporting child molesters" Peeing in public has put people on that registry which is garbage..... before romeo and juliet laws were put into place, 18 y.o.'s screwing their 16 y.o. g/f's got guys put on it.... It doesn't happen with R+J laws now, but that doesn't help the people that were put on it prior....
I think it should be illegal if the student is in that teacher's class, due to it being conflict of interest. But makes me wonder... If a sex offender who's crime was having sex with a 16 year old in California and he moves to New Jersey were its legal, would he have to registry as a sex offender there?
Absolutely. He would have to comply with all the sex offender registration requirements of his new state, as if he HAD committed a crime in that state, even if he did not.
conflict of interest happens in all sorts of places.... but two adults are able to make an agreement about sex. Whether its a principal and ast principal like at my old school, or a teacher and his 19 yo student, again, at my old school. Should it cost the superior their job and certificate.... ABSOFAWKINGLUTELY..... but it's still two adults. Prison guards and inmates.... another example. I don't work in the prison system, so I am not sure the laws.... but, is it ILLEGAL, or just unethical?
It's not two adults but at least one is adolescent. You do know that teacher has control over his/her grades, right?
19 is an adult....yes, I grasp grading and understand the ethical dilemma .... still doesn't change the fact she was 19
I don't see why that should matter seeing as how that is arbitrary legal definition. Not saying it should have harsh punishments.
It's not the not so most of the sex. But rather this: Conflicts of interest can arise when the professional responsibilities of a teacher are affected, or appear to be affected, by a special personal relationship with a student. These can include showing favoritism towards a student sexually involved with the teacher, or hostility towards a student due to a past relationship. If a teacher is sexually involved with a student, colleagues may feel pressured to give preferential treatment to the student, such as better marks, extensions on essays, extra help, or academic opportunities. When there are multiple relationships between several staff and students, the possibilities for conflict of interest are enormous. Even if there is no favoritism or hostility, it can be perceived by others to be exhibited.
conflicts of interest can happen like in the case of my ex-principal with his assistant Principal..... conflicts of interest aren't illegal. Certainly unethical and they should be fired. 2 adults. a college professor and a 19 y.o. student is ALSO a conflict of interest.... doesn't make it illegal.
In a town in my county a teacher had a consensual sexual relationship with an 18 year old student and he went to prison and he was required to register as a sex offender. It is kind of strange an 18 year old is old enough to join the military and die for their country or be psychologically or physically damaged for the rest of their lives, but that 18 year old isn't mature enough to decide who they're going to have sex with-makes sense right???- I'm not saying the teacher shouldn't have been fired and he shouldn't of lost his teaching license, but being sent to prison and being required to register as a sex offender for having a consensual sexual relationship with an adult-
[MENTION=53065]JavisBeason[/MENTION]: So who do you feel about 13,14, and 15 year old males having sex with older attractive females? Just curious because you said daughter rather than son.
Where they allow people underaged minors close in age to have sex with each other. Which is kind of silly consider teenagers can and often do pressure each other for sex. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/ukn...is-acceptable-to-pressure-girls-into-sex.html
Yes and no...but mostly no. I think there should a de jure Age of Consent being 13 and de facto Age of Consent being 16. Similar to what Pennsylvania and Canada does, sexual relationships between a 13/14/15 year old and a 16+ year old should be individualized and decided by a court(preferably a jury) whether the relationship is exploitative or not. Though, I think that 16+ yo females having sex with 13-15 yo males should be ignored unless exploitation is apparent.
A lot less sillier than punishing two kids for consentual sex. And the power difference is not there.
a noble statement until it's your 14 y.o. daughter being preyed upon by an 18 y.o. (sexual orientation irelevant)
Because when people picture a younger girl with an older boy they picture Shirley Temple being preyed upon by Justin Bieber. It's a heck of a lot more dramatic to picture an older boy going after a young girl than an older girl going after a younger boy. Because, as you know, no young girl can consent and all boys are perverts chasing little girls.
because it was a 14 yo girl in this case that was victimized. If it was a story about a 18 and 14 y.o. boys.... I'd say "your son"
