[quote=Anonymous][quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What hurt was caused?[/quote]

Exactly!!!!!

No hurt was caused.

OP did something quite strange, she was reported, and she simply proved she had done nothing wrong.

Those are the facts.

Now, facts are boring, so let's are the drama....[/quote]

Those are not the complete facts. The OP's sense of community in her children's school was destroyed. Her trust in people she may have liked was lost. She may have had to disclose sensitive and embarrassing personal affairs to explain her innocence. The OP was considered guilty until she proved her innocence and that is exactly how many of you think it should be. Any complaints are derided as "drama".

DP.  That is a very dramatic recitation of what occurred.  One, or maybe a few, busybodies reported and/or gossiped about her and that 'destroyed her sense of community in the school.'  That shattered her trust in people broadly?  In terms of disclosing sensitive information, that is purely speculative, would require disclosure only to the investigators not parents/the school, and presumably could be limited to the fact that she had temporary housing without going into the details of why.

How was she considered guilty until proven innocent?  The only way that is remotely accurate is if you look only at the folks gossiping, and even then that probably isn't an accurate reading of what they were doing.  There is no reason to think that the investigators thought she was guilty at the start -- they were simply investigating.  I'm also not sure who has advocated assuming guilt -- people seem to simply think it is reasonable to investigate. [/quote]
