[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Interesting that nobody thinks it is critical for the parents to talk to their own child about what happened. The incident may or may not be “frivolous.” The message you send to your kid is important. The adult sexual harassers started their sexual harassment long before they became adults. Kids have to be taught from the beginning what is acceptable behavior - no matter how “minor” the incident is. Parents/guardians need to be having these conversations with their kids - using age-appropriate language and concepts, of course. The DCUM consensus to just ignore the whole thing is frigtening and dangerous. And it is why we are in a mess in this country today. Everybody needs to do their part.[/quote]

Everyone needs to do their part, including the school system in ensuring that responses are age-appropriate and effective. Starting an adversarial star chamber investigation in response to a rumor or small incident pretty much destroys the chance to teach kids at an appropriate level. [/quote]
