What an unbelievably ignorant sexist response. Typical Feminist Bias, No matter what a women does they are never wrong, they are always the victim. If this was a man you'd be calling for him be hung. What a hypocrite and sick female apologist your are.

You call a 17 yr. old a child...They got kids younger then him fighting in wars around the world...17 is not a child...7 yrs. old is a child! All I can say is I wish I was that 17 yr. old man!

Stop calling a 17 year old a child. I was in the U.S. Army 82nd Airborne when I was 15. There were many under aged in the military, that got in one way or another. Point is, they were not children. Some even got into the heavy fighting. I even had girlfriends that would, and did, before i was 15 Y'all expect a guy to go through his first ten years of puberty without getting any. The real thing sure beats the crap out of masturbation.

Hey Mike and Phil your argument is sick logic. So becuase other countries send children into war to die in battle, we should allow children to be sexually assaulted, abused and exploited here in America. DUH!

And Phil, if you were in the U.S. Army at 15 YOUR PARENTS had sign a letter giving their permission for you to join. Or else you lied about your age and falsified your Birth Certificate.

Just because you broke the law to do something stupid doesn't mean others should be allowed to!

I agree with Mike and Philip Sunderline. A 17 year old who commits a crime is 100% responsible for his actions. A 17 year old who has sex with someonw who is 16 or 17 is totally responsible for his actions. Yet, a 17 year old chooses to have sex with a teacher, and enjoys having sex with her, and then somehow gets discivered and he is a victim?

At 17, these young men insisted on being allowed freedom to go places and do things. If they took drugs, we wouldn't say the person who sold them the drugs was responsible completely, and if a 17 year old sold drugs he would go to prison as an adult.

Yet, a 17 year old freely enters a sexual relationship with a woman, or man, and he is somehow magically not-responsible because he is an infant?

We love being victims in America, and we love to castiagate and imprison people. the affairs were morally wrong, and proabbly harmful to all parties, but what transpired between the boys and this woman should not be a crime.

The 17 year olds would rightly whelp and yelp if they were denied freedom to associate and act in the world. With freedom comes responsibility.

It is almost silly that people want to relieve 17 year olds from responsibility for their own choices and actions.

You're a liar must making a smart ass comment!

Knowing he had sex with an experienced young woman that most likely taught him a few things, is not the worst thing to happen to a 17 yr old. Talk to him about it--but don't be judgemental.

Hey Allen Schroeder, so you would have no problem with your 17 year old daughter getting "experience" on how to perform oral sex from her 25 year old school teacher on a regular basis. Hey it's not the worst thing to learn how to "deep throat" right.

You are one sick person and unfit to be a father.

Yes there is a double standard because of nauture. She did not "rape" these young men or "sexually abuse" them, she made herself sexually available and they acted upon the invitation. They are not victims the are sexually mature males who had sex with a willing partner. Now because she is a teacher it is inappropriate but she is not a "predator" or a "pedophile"

Hey Kevin, under the LAW she is a criminal. She knew what the law was and violated. Do you make excuses for men who knowing violate the law? Then why are you doing it for this woman? Your attitude is sexist.

And if a 25 year old school teacher knocked up your 17 year old daughter, it would take you all of 5 seconds to call the police and pick up your shotgun you freaking two faced hypocrite!

DUH! The law does go by whether you are arouse or not, it goes by age. She broke the law. Your another Feminist making a Sexist making an excuse for women when they break the law.

Sandra. You poor thing you. You must be all of 14 or 15. What you don't know is that men/boys are always sexually aroused, while it is the women who usually has to be sexually aroused. Sometimes mere kissing will do it. And as far a Gilbert Jr goes, that poor soul needs some truth councelling. I never showed a birth certificate, and I was a couple of thousand miles away from home. Mama had nothing to do with it. And Jr, your chances of having a healthy sex life are nil.

Good point, Jim.

Your's is a classic Pedophile argument. It is obvious you are one of those sick people!

Hey Kevin, so If some 25 year old Male school teacher was banging your 17 year old daughter in the Walmart parking lot on a regular basis, you would have a problem with it right? YOU HYPOCRITE! You should be locked up for child endangerment!

Are you kidding me. If everyone who was doing it to younger men were to be ordered to go to a Vegas Cathouse, The Cathouses would extend clear across the country. Stop fooling yourself. Either get it on somewhere, or go back into the bathroom and lock the door.
