And who's to say that she didnt use him? What if she just wanted him or was just attracted to him? I have a few friends who will only date older ( by a decade or more) men. i see nothing wronmg with it, and yes she will probably regret the decision to sleep with him, along with her decision to sleep with 1/2 the other dudes she sleeps with. Its called lief

There is a duty for an adult who has been placed in a position of authority over children to at the very least say, "No." In many places this is actually law, regardless of the age of the student involved.

Unless that duty has been codified, which it hasn't been in Georgia, it may be a moral duty but it isn't a legal duty. The girl had also reached the age of consent in Georgia so the ages don't legally matter either. There were no laws broken and I don't really understand why it took a court to make that decision.

The teacher broke administrative rules so he is no longer teaching in the district and has lost his teaching certificate. There is nothing more that could have been done.

In this case IMHO the places that have codified this duty are correct. A school is not a singles bar for teachers to go trolling at.

Right on, thank God there are people out there willing to take up the cause of telling us what is right in wrong in situations where no one is hurt and enforce their personal moral values with threat of fine or imprisonment. If it weren't for politicians, who would protect us from ourselves?

My oh my, you're getting mighty offended over that. Mind, I didn't say that they couldn't chase 17 year olds, just those who they have authority over.
