I would question why she was allowed to resign and not thrown out of the school. I sure hope that the parents don't drop this. I think that the teachers aid needs a psychological evaluation.

That is bizarre. I can not imagine any possible justification for such a terrible thing and I am a teacher.

I personally believe that the aide should be stapled to the wall and used for spitball practice.......

Ya know, this and the other thread about the girl whose pants were pulled down. It is just incredible. Educators are mandatory reporters, yet under the veil of confidentiality, they hide thousands and thousands of assaults each year to keep their crime stats low.

I hope that the parents sue the crap out of them...because money is what will motivate them to do the right thing....for all the wrongs reasons.

The all sounds like a plot for a Wes Craven movie......scary......
