Update on Responsibility.....

WCVB has reported that the teens at the center of the sex scandal at toney Milton Academy were involved in three other similar incidents between January and February. Administrators at Milton Academy sent home a letter to parents detailing the most recent allegations, backpeddling somewhat from their initial contention that the first reported incident was an aberration. It would now appear that expelling all the students, including the fifteen year old girl at the center of this story, would have been an appropriate response. Although the story states that a fifteen-year-old cannot give legal consent to sex...given the circumstances, coercion would be a difficult case to make. http://www.thebostonchannel.com/news/4249076/detail.html
