I went to Jr. High in New Mexico, circa 1964 to 1967. I learned years later that the legal age in NM was 13 until changed sometime in the 90s, I think. I had a Spanish class and our teacher, a younger Latino guy, I'm guessing near 30, would leer like a som***** at two of the girls, two of the cutest in school. I mean, the guy was leaving nothing to the imagination. The girls responded in a way that made it clear they knew what was up. Couldn't tell if they were actually showing interest though.

I've wondered since if that guy wasn't indulging at the time and within most of the letter of the law.

Weird.

We have no concerns with my oldest son, almost annoyingly , he's able to do very well even though he treats school as an afterthought. He could care less who is blabbering on at the front of the class.

My 7yo, however, has Down syndrome so that consistency is a bit more important. Fortunately his para-professional and his speech therapist haven't been stricken by the baby bug this year. We do have him in an after school and summer program to try to keep him as close to his typical peers as possible without having to pull him out of class during the day for his supplemental sessions.
