Sorry to have confused you. Quincy and I were trying to identify and clarify elements of the law that seemed to point in different directions. That's the problem with our often complex legal system, it has so many moving parts and terminology that sometimes it can be difficult to discern what pieces might be relevant to a particular issue.

As a father of four boys and former teacher as well as a peace officer, I can only suggest that if your gut says to keep your daughter away from this guy, then keep her away as best you can. But, be careful, as you may create a "forbidden fruit" mystique to this particular "bad boy" if you lay down the law. Maybe try and approach her from a point of reason if that's at all possible before you become to dictatorial.

Good luck!

As the Mom of 2 daughters...
I agree.

I, too, apologize for any confusion caused by CdwJava and my back-and-forth.

Schools are made aware of any serious charges or convictions involving any of the students in their school - and the news media will not let a report of a serious crime go without mention. Even crimes that are relatively minor in comparison to rape, like sexting, are reported.

Schools also will not jeopardize the safety of the other students in the school. The boy if seen as a danger to others will not be part of the general school population.

For these reasons, I suspect that the rumors you have heard about the boy are not entirely true, although there could be grains of truth in the stories being circulated.

That said, I agree with CdwJava that you will want to assert your parental rights if you want to keep your daughter from associating privately with the boy.

Well that was part of tbe equation also, the school. They dropped the ball on some other issues this past year & I believe they did with this too!. I happened to be at the school one day picking up my daughter for a doctor's appt. & the receptionist called for this boy to come to the office. He walked in, saw me there & seemed lto get real uncomfortable all of a sudden. There was a woman there waiting for him & they went into a room & shut the door. I asked my daughter later who that was & she told me it was his p.o. (Mind you, this is before i knew any of this.) So he did something to have a p.o. meeting him at school??

The probation officer might have had a regularly scheduled meeting with the boy or the probation officer might have been called at the request of the school or the probation officer might have even been called at the request of the boy. All sorts of possibilities.

It is possible that the boy is having a hard time adjusting to school, what with rumors about him circulating freely among the students. I am sure the situation is uncomfortable for all involved.
