Moron Sex - After All of these years

I am under strict marital-law orders to clarify my previous post:

HIgh School Sex -It's More Than Just Sex

When I wrote that I wasn't going to ask the second girl if the adult school employee was having sex with her before she graduated, I was trying to give him the benefit of the doubt. Like, maybe he took some professional development courses, and instead of grading on her curves while she was a student like he did the first one, he waited until graduation night to cap the gown.

My wife doesn't like the way I wrote it. First of all, she thinks the only reason I brought it up was because he was tapping it and not me. She said something to the effect that I could go find the girl if that would make me happy, and don't forget to send money. After a few months shy of 32 years of bliss, and she hangs it up for one night of 37 years ago. Whoever...

Secondly, my wife thinks the way I said that "the three of us were together" one night along with that I said how easy it would be to not ask "her" implied that it was her, my wife.

So, I am here to set the record straight. It wasn't my the wife the guy was tutoring. I did not get a BJ in Immokalee, at any price. And I did not have sex in New York .... with a $4000 call girl.

Glad I didn't say anything about the girl that sat next to me in typing class and the days she wore those short skirts and crossed her legs. You know how embarrasing it is to have a wet spot on khaki pants, and I never took my hands off the keyboard.

HIgh School Sex -It's More Than Just Sex

If you are thinking I am going to share personal history, I'll play a little of Garth Brooks' "Old Stuff":

"Oh the stories we could tell
If it weren't for the code of the road,,,"

Just a marketing ploy to get one's attention. Speaking of marketing, now that we know some people pay $4000 an hour for sex activity in New York, it may be surprising to know that one can get a blow job in Immokalee, Fla for $2. One can use their own calculations and variables to figure out how much that comes to in an hour. In case you wonder how I know this bit of information, look back on my post (it may be on my adjacent blog) of my days working for the U. of Miami on a nationwide AIDS research project. I have to admit, the packaging of the $4000 woman and the $2 woman says it all.

High School Sex. I graduated in 1971 from East Bay H.S. A male school employee was boinking one of the senior girls. I later found out he also was boinking another girl who was two years younger. What I am not sure of if he started on the second girl before she graduated. What I am sure of is he and I were in the same place with her one night, but it was after she had graduated. I didn't ask then, and I am not asking her now.


Fast forward to 1998. I know a high school girl who was boinking her soccer coach when she was in school. Also, during the late 90's, I knew a married woman was involved with a married AP. I saw them several times in the same vehicle at various places. I saw his truck at her mother's place. I also heard the rumors of how the windows on a school room were covered over and the room would be locked when the two of them were together. She became pregnant. They are now married.

Today we have an article from the Tampa Tribune - Are More Teachers Crossing The Line? .

This sentence grabs my attention:

""I'm doubtful that there's an epidemic going on," Finkelhor said. "I do think there's more reporting. One of the things that's changed is the very large liability lawsuits that happened in the wake of the priest abuse stuff. I think that has sensitized schools to the liability that they themselves may incur if they don't really take a very proactive stance with regard to these things.

"There was, perhaps, more in the past, a tendency of them to try and keep it under wraps. Get rid of the teacher. Negotiate something out, but not allow it to get public."".

I have expressed my thoughts about how important "image" is to our local school system here: Image More Important Than Substance? .

I don't have many guests register at my motel. I seem to think that a few drive by and look to see what the marquee says, but they never check in. Maybe they have read the lines behind the above flower vase. Maybe they know the words in the rest of the song -"you can check out anytime, but you can never leave" (Eagles).

Timing is everything. I did have a guest drop in here: Where Does The Money Go and How Does One Know .

This person writes: "Next year )we have heard rumors) resource rooms are coming back--even for higher functioning kids who are doing well in FUSE classes. I'm so sorry that this has all come down to politics and money, money, money. Parents should check this out-- it is NOT Least Restrictive Environment"!"

I learned a long time ago that parents can do what school employees can't. Despite the disparaging things that have been said to me and about me, I know that there are a lot of teachers silently begging for help. Some are openly begging for help.

I know what it's like to be told I was a "malcontent", that I used "broadbrush attacks" and that I only complain about "isloated incidents". But I also have the records to show how one administrator and one teacher lied and altered documents. Sort of like the blue dress evidence.

Here is an example of what parents did that school employees wouldn't. "Old news is still bad news, but how many know it?" . Real Professionals would work to correct this problem. I have reason to believe that efforts are strengthened to keep the public ignorant.

I remember my fraternity parties with the loud music playing and a very crowded dance floor, and the obligatory kegs and 55 gallon can of Everclear and fruit juices. One of the brothers would reach over and grab my date's ass and I would get slapped because I was the closest one to her. To make the metaphor clear, teachers are getting slapped by the parents because of what the administration is doing.

The house of cards is falling down. Blaming it on the kids and parents to maintain an image takes a lot resources. These resources could be put into developing an honest relationship with the public.

Almost another $200,000 down the drain

If this account is true, I wonder if the secretary has kids.

Or was her reaction to an irate parent a reflection of an administrative posture that "no one talks to us that way. We are educational experts."

In the real business world, consumers who don't like the way they are treated don't go back. In the real business world, business owners have the right to refuse service to those they do not want to do business with. I know the public school system is not a business - because they get their money no matter what.

It may be difficult for many to comprehend the emotional processes a parent goes through when they find out their kid is lost. One of these emotional processes is an inherit sense of distrust that starts to emerge. They want to find their kid, and any perceived action that anyone else does not share that immediate need will not be taken well.

The previous HCDS Superintendent once tried to bring back that "welcome feeling" for parents. I believe there were a few "red carpets" sent around. I am sure his desire was for a change in the culture, not just another "check mark" and an substance-empty symbol.

I can only imagine, in my "malcontent disposition", that the kid and the parent will be blamed for the trauma they have chosen to feel. After all, they are not the only family the HCDS has to deal with.

And for those who don't grasp the significance of $200,000, that is all Eric Martin the HCDS thought was fair value.

God forbid that none of us have to endure a tragedy. It could happen to any of us.
Maybe the degree of professionalism that parents give to a public school system is how much the system sees the value of their kids.
