IO has a couple postings about teacher sex scandals in Oswego but it looks like Mr. Note censored out the names/initials of those involved. Maybe to protect himself from a lawsuit?
I am really curious about what might be going on in the schools

Humans like to have sex. It's human! That's right. But adultery isn't something the school district should promote.

When did adultery become part of the curriculum in our school district? Unless they are doing the horizontal bop in front of the students its their business who they dance with. Lets get real, the kids are having private encounters in and around the school everyday and watching a couple teachers romp around isn't going to TEACH them anything that they haven't learned at home watching TV.

On IO today, there was a post saying "The sad truth is when you have the Oswego $ ! rumored to be having an affair almost the day he arrived"
I am assuming $ ! is a censored out job title? I read into it as a high ranking person? I don't think it is Fischer because the post later goes on to talk about him by name and how he ignores these affairs. Who is a high ranking male having affairs in the school district I wonder???

Is it anyones business what people do with their private lives.....no. Try minding your own business....oh no, then who would you point your little crooked fingers at and make snide remarks about? I'm willing to bet that the vast majority of the ones who have their panties in a bunch over this are over the age of 60 and Christians.

Sex play is normal growing up. That is a given. Exposure to it on the television and exposure to it in school is apples to oranges. If you really think the children are not exposed to what their teachers do in school, you are fooling yourself. Parents have control over what their children watch. Children should also be able to tell, or be told, that most of TV is fiction or sensationalized. When they see respected individuals practicing the same behavior in actual life, the line between fiction and non-fiction becomes hard to see. Simply put, these teachers are role models and set examples for our children. Any behavior that you would not accept or want your child engaging in should not be tolerated by those are with them for a good part of the day.

As soon as you engage in sex in any public buliding you just made yourself a "celebrity". Even worse if you're a teacher or a poitician.

Who decided that teachers are role models? I never had a teacher that I would consider a role model. A role model is someone that you look up to with admiration and use as an example of how you would like to live. If you're kid uses teachers for role models then you failed miserably in raising him or her. I highly doubt that the teachers are "doing it" in front of the students. Drama 101

Drama 101 I am sorry you never had teacher you didn't look up to. I had quite a few growing like many of my friends in school. Role models are all around. Including Pro Sports figures. Kids pick up on what adults do. They want to act like adults. I think the point is that word gets around school quickly. Its not whether the sex is in public view.

Oops I didn't know the kids were unaware that adults have sex. I know they don't like to picture it, but I'm pretty sure most know about it. ;D Get over it, the teachers are there to teach the kids, not act like "role models", baby sitters, or robots with no feelings or emotions. If your kid can't deal with a couple people being human they need to join the real world and let go of the apron strings. Its more like the parents are the ones who have a problem with it. Which isn't a big surprise with the Good Christian busybodies running around sticking their prudish noses in everyone else's business. The "role model" crap is always brought up when someone wants someone to act different. If a kid picks a person to be a role model and that person decides to act like a total idiot, too bad. Just because you may feel someone should act like a "role model" doesn't mean squat. Its still a semi-free country. Man these smiley thingers are the nuts.

Using your way of thinking we all should go out and blatantly take part in adultery or other immoral generally accepted practices. Who cares what the kids think or see? It's all the parents fault anyway.

Its immoral in your opinion. You're another person who thinks everyone should follow the values your religion teaches. I'm not religious however if I was I'd tend to lean toward the Hindus and the Kamasutra, (Karma Sutra for all the Westerners). Sound cool and looks like a riot. Like I said before I doubt the kids are watching. If they are, then yes its the parents fault for not teaching the kids any manors. Staring is rude. Its not the kids complaining, its the adults. Probably because they're jealous they ain't getting any.

Its not the kids complaining, its the adults. Probably because they're not getting any To ImIn, Yes, you have the perfect right to express your opinion, whether it is correct according to accepted mores, or not. And by the same token, I have the perfect right to disagree with you whether my ideas are right or not. Your attitude on what is correct or not correct, what is morally acceptable or not is a long way off from what I consider proper behavior. Your attitude is very indicative of what may soon be the cause of the downfall of this great, but sagging, nation. The USA is self destructing from within. The USSR's Gorbachev prophesied this demise over fifty years ago. We will defeat ourselves. We are rotting away, morally, from within. I notice in your writings that you have a strong dislike for formal "Religion " of the western world. You praise eastern style religion and the Kama Sutra (2,689 ways to have kinky sex with anyone that you please) with no regard to any spinoff that may result. It probably doesn't bother you and others of your ilk, that the USA is on the verge of going completely Socialist/Liberal. The poor batch of sorry excuses for leaders that are vying to become president of our sinking country represent exactly what would be the worst thing that could befall us as a nation. This is especially true of the so called Democratic contenders. Some of the Republicans are no better. So if you think that it's okay for the teachers of our children and grandchildren to have the morals of a cocker spaniel in heat, God help you. Some day you'll need it.

I have to agree with Honeybun. Both Hillary and Obama and a bunch of other super Liberals are dangerous if they get elected. They want to give the country away. All kinds of plans for free programs for you name it.
I see where McClain won the Florida primary and winner take all votes toward his nomination. He is one of the better choices for the Republicans. Miles better than Rudy Kazootie who will withdraw today. Sorry to say, McCain is another candidate who has liberal leanings.
He is pretty good in some of his ideas, but he, too, is also soft in his treatment of the illegal aliens. He wants to give them everything and sees nothing wrong with it. He and Hillary are both reading out of the same playbook.
The only difference is Hillary and company want to cozy up to the illegal Mexican and Central American fence jumpers and treat them good so that they will enrol as Democrats and create a dynasty. McClain, ever the Republican capitalist, wants the cheap labor to stick around to make money for the businesses that exploit them.
The worst thing for this country is for it to become a Socialist State. We are falling away from being the great country we once were for over 200 years. We are drifting away from the ideals that made us the greatest country in the world.

Honey Bun you're correct that I have a dislike of religion, except its all religions. JFYI your Western Religion is actually an Eastern Religion. I doubt you want to discuss your religion on here or even have the knowledge of it to be able to discuss it. My remark about Hinduism was sarcastic, I'm an atheist and very proud of it. Oh and I believe its more like 2694 kinky ways to have sex, which is 2693 more than you've probably ever experienced. According to your way of thinking only religious people have morals and those who don't believe in myths and legends are doomed. I don't believe you need to make up stories of some God punishing people for doing wrong in order to teach moral behavior. You seem to be one of the holy ones who is assuming the teachers in question were romping around on the classroom floor in front of the kids, or at least thats how you make it sound. Then again from the way you respond to people who are not of the "Christian Cult" you probably don't approve of anything more than a hand shake in public. As for the downfall of our country, I hope you're not trying to say that a lack of religion is causing it. Why don't you just say that anyone who is not a Christian does not meet with your approval and is to blame for all of mankind's problems? That seems to be how people of your kind like to think. I'm not going to get into whats wrong with the country and who is to blame with you because I don't have a week to spend wasting my time. Actually I do but you wouldn't get it. PS. I really don't think that imaginary God of your's is capable of helping anyone. ;D This message have been approved by the United Heathens and Atheist Association of America.

I would like to know if ImIn has morals, and if so, how he/she came about defining them.
If a country focuses on pleasing themselves, they redefine their morals to fit those indulgences (right Slick Willy?). This is part of moral decay. It is one reason why the Roman Empire fell. You can thank the liberalism of the Roman Emperor for Christianity by the way.

Mytake, I have very strong morals and FYI I was raised in a catholic family with a Great uncle who was a Monsignor in the catholic church, and an uncle who was a priest. I left the church at age 12 because I didn't agree with its teachings. My morals came from my families teachings about right and wrong and how to treat others. I have a child who attends a Catholic school, not because I need them to teach morals, but because I want my child to have an education that includes religion, so when she is old enough to make her own decision it will be an educated one. She will also be taught about other religious beliefs, science, and history. The Roman empire fell because of Christianity not because of moral decay. All of the values upon which the empire was built were overturned by the rise to power of the Church. In the decades that followed, science and philosophy were banned and replaced by delusions of heaven and hell, and ideas about justice in this world were replaced by hope for a heavenly reward in the next world. Books were burned, knowledge was lost, and freethinkers were persecuted and killed, plunging the entire region into a dark age that lasted for more than a thousand years. Many freethinking people despised Christianity during the dark ages. They knew that the Bible was just an improvised collection of mediocre myths, but because the Church had so much power, very few people were brave enough to speak out openly against it. Only in the late 1700s and early 1800s, with the emergence of political freedom and the discoveries of modern science did freethinkers start to openly criticize the Christian myth.

I'm with you completely on this one! Good response.
