Grow up, would you?

It seems that being a kid just got a little more dangerous. Just ask 2 elementary school children (ages 4 and 5) who were written up for sexual harassment. The first hugged a school aid and rubbed his face in her chest. The second punched a female classmate in the buttocks in the school hallway. Needless to say, both boys' parents were aghast that their kids would now have sexual misconduct written on their school files.

Did anyone ever think that maybe they were just being kids?

I did! They better never come over to my house......do you think they are gonna have to undergo severe psychological testing? Will they be labeled as sexual offenders/predators in the neighborhood? Good grief!

the problem in a pluralist society is finding an objective, yet non-arbitrary measure to implore to assess and prescribe acceptable behaviour - and once found, how would you go about imposing that standard on others?
