Reported sexual exploitation in Texas public schools growing

Pratt on Texas - copyright Pratt on Texas all rights reservedAnother public school year is upon us with children of all ages being handed over to officials of the state for education and social and political indoctrination. For me it was prison from the first day but I know that there are others who love school and I wish the best for all of them this year.

There is a very dark side to our school environment that is becoming more heavily exposed and that is the problem of sexual exploitation.

This week the Texas Education Agency told Breitbart Texas by email its staff investigated 429 cases of inappropriate student-educator relationships during the 2017-18 school year.

“The 429 cases reflect a 42 percent increase over the number of teacher-student sexual misconduct investigations TEA launched in 2016-17. Likewise, this year’s total represents almost a 250 percent uptick in cases since 2008-09 [in which there were 123 cases,] the academic year when the agency began tracking these purported incidents,” Breitbart Texas reported.

now that we have passed  laws with serious penalties for those who do not report these illegal predatory relationships, reporting numbers are growing.

So is the problem getting worse or just being reported more often?

I think it is a combination of both.

In our hyper-sexualized culture where supposed “consent” is the only standard of something being acceptable or not, there is little question that sexual predation has risen.

But also, TEA’s own investigators have pointed out that officials in Texas schools have routinely covered up these cases and now that we have passed  laws with serious penalties for those who do not report these illegal predatory relationships, reporting numbers are growing.

No matter the detail, the problem is sickening.
