I don't get it:two consenting adults had sex, bad judgement and put themselves before their children. Absentee father gets pissed and sues. Girl goes from outgoing to quiet but her parents live in different places and are divorcing and her mother is having an affair. Who wouldn't? But this is not a scandal. What is scandalous is that the father is willing to drag the mother of his children and his children through the mud for revenge.

And I'm not sure that the ex wife comes out smelling like roses either. Who knows why she told the husband. She was already divorced. They are all fucked up.

Yes, this seems to be more about his perception that they made a fool of him than about actual harm, given that Sidwell fired the employee (and I assume he's been sanctioned and/or lost his license).

He's angry. I feel for him. Don't know how he proves cognizable damages. Does he have an expert?

The part about "daddy's girlfriend"? Or the part in the erratum at the end, where "there" is used as the object of a preposition?

So true. LOL. Though the fact is not funny at all.

The word "cuckold" is never used to describe a woman.

The noun only refers to a husband being cheated on by his wife, not vice versa.

Can you read? Plaintiff wanted to settle out of court at the beginning and school refused.

Why is there a word for a man who is cheated on by his wife, but no word for a woman cheated on by her husband? It's a sexist word, based on the idea that being cheated on by a husband is normal but being cheated on by a women is shameful for a man.

I don't know I am torn. He is mad and has every right to be mad..his daughter was put in a very compromising position and the fact he has custody now says a lot. Sidwell owes him big time...they should pay and apologize and I am thinking they were very casual about it. Big mistake. They should have taken this seriously from start..investigated and fired the school shrink asap--what was the shrink over the home evaluating brilliance anyway..that a lone I would fire. What I think is awful is his dragging the Woodward family into this..what did they ever do to him..that was terrible. Gosh I think they may have reason to sue the school themselves. Good thing this girl is being raised elsewhere..she has a shot to not allow this to affect her. FWIW..I still think it's a great school..I do but hopefully the school fixes this asap.
