Mike Posted March 22, 2006 Report Posted March 22, 2006 Sooooo, anyone have any thoughts on this topic? I think a 14 YO boy know what he is doing and especially with a teacher that looks like THIS! It's a difficult subject, technically, yeah he's a minor. But I think back to when I was 14 and I think... excuse me for a minute.... What's your opinion.
blind-fitter Posted March 22, 2006 Report Posted March 22, 2006 Sooooo, anyone have any thoughts on this topic? I might if I knew a bit more about the situation, but I've never heard of Debra Lafave. It sounds like the kind of situation about which I'd readily share my thoughts though, if anyone can help with links to "the story".
Mike Posted March 22, 2006 Author Report Posted March 22, 2006 Don't get me wrong, she abused her power and trust as a teacher, but it's very weird... VERY weird!!
Uncle Joe Posted March 22, 2006 Report Posted March 22, 2006 The song "Teach Me Tonight" comes to mind.
blind-fitter Posted March 22, 2006 Report Posted March 22, 2006 It's noticeable that the "boy" is claiming to have been traumatised by the intense media coverage, but not by the "events" themselves... These situations arise every now and then, and there's always some nincompoop suggesting that the boy must have been "mentally-scarred" by his attractive young teacher's attentions. I was mentally-scarred by many things during my school years: an intense carnal encounter or two with Mrs Willerton might just have made those years a lot more bearable.
SoulGirl Posted March 22, 2006 Report Posted March 22, 2006 well clearly what happened is wrong. if it had been a 14-year-old girl and a male teacher nobody would question that. you could never say that a 14 year-old girl "should have known better" and a boy should be treated with the same respect for his innocence. for an adult to have 'relations' with a minor is wrong and particularly so when that adult is in a position of authority and has been entrusted with the care of the child. i agree that the woman in question is very attractive and that it is very unlikely that the boy was particularly resistant to what happened. but it shouldn't have happened and she needs to live with her punishment, just like a man in the same situation would.
Eggplant Posted March 22, 2006 Report Posted March 22, 2006 From what I understand she basically received no punishment. House arrest and probation I believe. Had it of been a man that did the same things to a 14-year-old girl, I dare say the outcome would have been much more severe for him. That being said, if I was the 14-year-old boy, I would have done the same thing. She is some smokin' hot babe!!
Farin Posted March 22, 2006 Report Posted March 22, 2006 so we come to the old question: Can a woman rape a man? Sure, if he begs long enough.
Brad_M Posted March 23, 2006 Report Posted March 23, 2006 When I was 14, I would have given anything to hump a few of my female teachers. Where was this girl when I was 14? I think it's a lot of bull about the kid's innocence. Not only myself, but every one of my friends were looking to get laid at that age and even before. At 14, you know what you want, and unless you are forced, you shouldn't cast the blame on someone else. This kid had sex with an adult on his own free will because he wanted it, not because he was forced. If it wasn't with the teacher, he would have been in bed with one of his peers instead. He should accept his part in it and stop placing blame on the teacher. Sounds to me that he and his family are more interested in media attention by playing the "victim", instead of admitting that he was not forced and that he could have said "no" if he wanted to. P.S. I wonder if I can use the wayback machine and go back to age 14 in Florida.
SoulGirl Posted March 23, 2006 Report Posted March 23, 2006 but in my opinion, it's not about whether the boy wanted it to happen or not but whether it should be made clear to adults that sex with a minor is wrong.
Lucky Posted March 23, 2006 Report Posted March 23, 2006 I'm pretty sure she knew it was wrong. He knew it was wrong. It happened. She should lose her teaching credentials, she obviously shouldn't be a teacher. He should have been expelled. He should have some consequences too.
Jenny Posted March 23, 2006 Report Posted March 23, 2006 I agree with Soulgirl and CeeCee. Whether the kid was willing or not, she's the adult and she should know better.
Tenacious_Peaches Posted March 23, 2006 Report Posted March 23, 2006 Who wants to sleep with a 14 year old boy anyway? They are horrible creatures.
blind-fitter Posted March 23, 2006 Report Posted March 23, 2006 Who wants to sleep with a 14 year old boy anyway? They are horrible creatures. Careful what you say. There's been a few Michael Jackson fans around lately. We wouldn't want to cause offence, would we?
Lucky Posted March 23, 2006 Report Posted March 23, 2006 Who wants to sleep with a 14 year old boy anyway? They are horrible creatures. This is exactly where the puzzling thing comes in. Look at her. She obviously did not need to sleep with a 14 year old. She has problems.
_Laurie_ Posted March 23, 2006 Report Posted March 23, 2006 Who wants to sleep with a 14 year old boy anyway? They are horrible creatures. hehehe Peachy, maybe the smell of Clearisil and Right Guard BO spray turn her on....
daslied Posted March 23, 2006 Report Posted March 23, 2006 Those were probably the worst 3 seconds of her life. Hey, I was 14 once. Once.
Sweet Jane 61 Posted March 23, 2006 Report Posted March 23, 2006 but in my opinion, it's not about whether the boy wanted it to happen or not but whether it should be made clear to adults that sex with a minor is wrong. You said it perfectly soulgirl! What are we telling are children and adults with her getting no punishment. It is against the law no matter what.
steel magnolia Posted March 23, 2006 Report Posted March 23, 2006 hehehe Peachy, maybe the smell of Clearisil and Right Guard BO spray turn her on....
Cheval Noir Posted April 4, 2006 Report Posted April 4, 2006 Doesn't she have to register as a "sex offender" for the rest of her life? Talk about a draconian punishment, right there.
MarcM Posted April 4, 2006 Report Posted April 4, 2006 She had sex with a child. The court frowns on that sort of thing.
