If There's Grass In The Outfield, Play Ball!

As a future teacher, I am outraged at the constant barrage of teacher-student sex scandals. Interestingly enough, we are finally discovering that the perpetrators are not just dirty old men, but attractive and … well not so attractive females.

The Smoking Gun has a list of several teacher-student sex scandals. Several of them involve coaches. I guess the new mantra for coaches: If there’s grass in the outfield, play ball. See them for yourself.

That is not a new mantra but now it is just much more public now days. I am also outraged by this. I hate the attitude that it is okay because it was an attractive female teacher. These are sexual predators just like their male counter parts. It does not matter if the victims enjoyed it or not. Great blog.
