[quote=Anonymous]A lot of ugliness, selfishness, lack of impulse control and vengeance on all sides here. Nobody is coming out of this looking like a caring, responsible adult. Nobody. That said, as a legal matter, it's doubtful that Jack's actions would be construed as having been within the scope of his employment. So the school will be off the hook. (Though it's likely that his actions created a therapeutic relationship with the student and that he personally -- and his malpractice insurance provider -- will be held liable.) What matters much more to me as a parent of middle and upper school kids, however, is that they now see adults at Sidwell as having failed to protect a student. That's trust betrayed on the part of young people who need to feel their teachers and administrators can be relied upon to do the right thing. This is the bottom line even if "most" of the allegations in the complaint are not true. [/quote]
