[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If I were a GDS parent I would support the school in denying any wrongdoing in order to h avoid any liability and avoid paying the family compensation for the incident. Specially if there is no hard evidence. [/quote]

You have it backwards. If there were any hint of this actually having happened the school would have paid (its insurance actually) asap. The blunt fact is that this attack was fabricated by the child and then magnified by the parent/s. There are so many examples of this (Washington Hebrew for one). The rape never happened - this is obvious.

You really don’t know enough to conclude that.  You just don’t want to believe the victim.[/quote]

I think it’s pretty clear. And no, I don’t think an abstraction like “believe victims” should be used to assess situations like this. It sounds like they believed the victim to an appropriate degree (ie open an investigation) and found nothing credible. Purported victims don’t have some kind of never-ending presumption of credibility in all cases. [/quote]

I agree with that, but a the same time the school doesn’t seem to have much empathy with the incident or intentions to reinforce protocol to prevent a similar scenario in the future. Family is wrong school is right. [/quote]

The incident being a false allegation? Yes I imagine the school is now going to install cameras to protect itself. [/quote]
