This is bull****.....

It's already illegal to "date" minors, now we want to give teachers crap pay AND make it illegal for them to engage in a sexual relationship with other consenting adults just because they have NOT dropped out of high school or they chose to attend college and further their education?!?!?!?!

For a teacher at NSU in Natchitoches, this proposal would eliminate probably 1/3 of our city population from the dating pool, and that's not taking into consideration the number of residents who are married, in a relationship, or otherwise unavailable.

And let me tell you, if you've never lived here, then you don't know what it's like to live in a city with about 15-16,000 people and have an influx of about 9000 freshmen, over half of which are totally legal females on their own for the first time and ready to party!AND it happens EVERY fall...anyone still unclear about why I'm REALLY still single?

I agree it is a bad law. I prefer actual numbers over actual guessing.

Is it just me or is the government slowly trying to make sexual intercourse illegal? The line between who you can have sex with and who you can't is becoming fuzzier all the time.

We just need to set a minimum age of consent and prosecute anyone dumb enough to have sex with someone under that age. Whether or not that person is in school is irrelevant.

As far as teachers having sex with their own students, that can be a complicated matter. If the student is in that teacher's class, then they should not be in a relationship together. It compromises the teacher's ability to make unbiased decisions regarding the student's grade. If the student is NOT in the teacher's class, then relationships should be permitted assuming the student is over the age of consent.

Permitted by whom? I'm fine with a school board/private school/college firing a teacher that bangs an of-age kid, but it shouldn't be a crime.

I can agree with that. It's wrong, but shouldn't be illegal.

Sounds like a case of the student becoming the teacher and the teacher becoming the student. I speak of college age only. There was a real good English literature teacher at LA Tech back in the day and if you did good in her class you would get a straight A to bad she only taught one class

You can thank the leftists/socialists for this garbage. They think the answer to any problem is big government. If theres a way to grow the government and make it more intrusive they'll do it.

You are so right Al. The ACLU at work again pushing their socialist agenda. Oh Anime that was my freshman year and I really enjoyed that class evil woman taking advantage of a 19 year old boy my roommate took her class the next quarter and got a A too.

You know. .I can agree with wanting smaller government.. but it seems our current republican administration is ALL ABOUT BIGGER government... if you ask me..

This bill by the way was authored by a Republican.

As wrong as the ACLU often is, I don't think this is the sort of thing they support.

Unfortunately, both parties seem to be all to willing to grow bigger and bigger government. Someday we could reach a "tipping point" at which time we we have a 50%+ tax rate and at the same time invent one or two new genre of music! It is my theory that "rock and roll" and "R&B", and "jazz" are artistic responses to political ideologies gone awry.....
