I agree. I was surprise that they just jumped on him like that. Not only was he 6 years younger, but he was only 8. Prosecutors are not in the public's interest, they operate in their own best interest to make their record look good. That's pretty scary when doing that can ruin other people's lives.
 
this shouldnt even get to a point where lawyers are involved, the boy shoulda just got a talk from his mum about whats right and wrong etc, the girl should be given counselling to find out if there is something a little more serious going on in her mental state....but not involving courts ffs, thats just stupid.....

if the boy had been a bit older, say 10 or 11, then it could have been a different situation, but then if he had been that age it may have gone further than just touching if he was maturing early....so then its possible a need for legal intervention may have arisen....

/reads article

Well, they droped the charges.. What's the problem?

Edit:

Guys, read the article. They were playing truth or dare. The girl dared the kid to touch her breasts.

The girl is fscked up.


The girl is a pedophile and should be charged.

Nothing would come of it. Girl is just confused. If you ask me, someone should look at her home situation, and see if maybe something is wrong there. She's just a kid.


Hello wake up. There are pedophiles that are under 18. Thats why you have to be so careful in this world. I bet thats how some of them even started. A pedophile can be anyone. Doesn't matter if its male or female, you know them, you trust them with your life, etc. They can still be a pedophile.

Lock her up for the rest of her life...that's the solution!!! :roll: Forget counseling, treatment, etc. She's obviously a dangerous monster that is capable of molesting everyone you know!

:roll: :roll: 🙁

Jesus didnt anybody ever play "Doctor"?? i know when i was 8 and a 14 year old girl let me touch her boob I would have been on cloud 9. our society is getting to fricken uptight.

sexual experimentation at that age is to be expected, it's weird seeing it turned into a crime. altho, does a boob mean much to an 8 yr old? I thought at that age boys were still disgusted by girls.

I was chasing girls on the playground at age 6. 🙂

I define a pedophile as someone who has reached sexual maturity wanting to fvck those who haven't.

I don't think this meets that requirement.

IT IS NORMAL FOR KIDS/TEENS TO EXPERIMENT.

Playing doctor? I'll show you mine if you show me yours?

We all did this sh!t to one degree or another. This isn't much different.

Should it have happened? No. Should there be repercussions for the girl? Yes. Should she be in a position of authority over children? Not right now.

There is absolutely no reason to ruin this girls life over stupid kid sh!t. She dared a kid to feel her up, how that makes her a pedophile is beyond me.

If she knew what that meant then she obviously knows better and therefore knew exactly what she was doing. She took advantage of a child and now has messed him up for the rest of his life. She is a pedophile because she knew what she was doing.

Yeah, this kid is messed up because he touched a boob. Dear Jebus, I hope he wasn't breastfed or born through a vagina!

I don't know about you dude but when I was about 8 my parents hired the daughter of a friend (probably 17 or 18 at the time) and I'd have given anything for her to let me feel her up. She was hot as hell in my little 8 year old mind.

It definitely shouldn't have happened (and didn't in my case, dammit), but it wouldn't have screwed me up for life.

I would have a completely different argument if this had been a 20 something, that's a totally different game.

How is it different when someone is 18 or over? You do realize a lot of pedophiles start as miniors right?

I made this special for you, I hope it will be put to use more often on these forums:

this coutnry is getting so lame, all he dis is touch her bresasts (presumably through her shirt), why is this such a BIG deal?
 
just sort of scanned the thread, but i agree with Viper GTS that nothing really horrible went down there, but the girl shouldn't be babysitting.

Lame by design. Stop voting for Religion in Government.

The girl is 14, how is that pedophilia?

What if she were 8? Would she still be a pedophile?

WTF? Messed him up the rest of his life? Where did you pull this one out of? The girl deserves punishment, but not in terms of the courts or any law enforcement system. That would harm more than help anyone. Messed him up for life, talk about a knee jerk reaction.
Aww, get real for Christ's sake.
She dared the kid to touch her boob, she didn't fingerfvck him.
Go lay down. 😛

I agree with this completley, religion does nto belong anywhwere in government (and this is coming from one of the most religous people you might meet). Religion in gov't is what is causing the problems in the mid-east.
