First Grader Suspended for Harassment
Feb 08 1:23 PM US/Eastern
BROCKTON, Mass.
A first grader was suspended for three days after school officials said
he sexually harassed a girl in his class by allegedly putting two
fingers inside the girl's waistband while she sat on the floor in front
of him.
The boy's mother, Berthena Dorinvil, said she "screamed" about last
week's suspension from Downey Elementary School, and added her son
doesn't know what sexual harassment is.
"He doesn't know those things," she told The Enterprise of Brockton.
"He's only 6 years old."
School officials declined comment to The Enterprise, citing the child's
age.
"They would have not suspended the child without doing an
investigation," said spokeswoman Cynthia McNally.
Dorinvil said the school principal, Diane Gosselin, called her to pick
up her son Jan. 30. She said her son asked the principal if the police
were going to come get him.
The principal told Dorinvil the girl complained to the teacher after
her son touched the girl's waistband, hitting her skin, in a room full
of children.
Dorinvil said her son told her he touched the girl's shirt, not her
skin, after the girl touched him.

Good Grief is right. But this generation of kids has been taught to
scream for help at the slightest provocation or suspicious activities
like being approached by a stranger - because the predators lurking
among us have gotten somewhat smarter, the alert levels had to be
lowered to a very sensitive trip-wire. It's up to the responding
local authorities to determine that nothing wrong was going on.
And you get school officials that have to declare "Zero Tolerance"
on a lot of things. On issues like this case of 'unwanted touching'
it's silly that anything at all was done, but there are some of those
overkill rules that come back to bite innocent people regularly...
"Zero Tolerance on Drugs on Campus." They find a vitamin or an
aspirin in your backpack, you get expelled. Kids dying from an acute
asthma attack because they can't carry an inhaler, or someone with
severe allergies going into anaphylactic shock because they can't
carry an Epinephrine auto-injector 'pen' with them. And by the time
they get the child to the office, locate the Principal or the Nurse
with the special keys, call and get clearance from the District
Offices to open the cabinet and get the item out of lock-up, log that
it has been removed....
God forbid it happens during an event after normal school hours when
there's nobody in the office. But there's no room for common sense or
discretion in a "Zero Tolerance" world.
And yet if you get investigators that cross the line in questioning
the children into feeding them ideas and trying to stoke a child's
fantasies and turn them into reality, and an overzealous prosecutor
looking to make a career move, you end up with the McMartin Preschool
debacle. They had kids describing "Secret Underground Rooms" that
didn't exist, etc.

That wasn't the only child-molestation disaster - the further nightmare in
that situation is that people tend to think that where there's smoke,
there's fire, so the stigma stays with you, no matter what comes out in
court.
