That is ridiculous. Only pinches gringos can come with that kind of B.S
The Brockton School Committee defines sexual harassment among students, in part, as "uninvited physical contact such as touching, hugging, patting or pinching."
I guess we should all have been arrested in this case !

nope it wasn't fair....... they should have called the parents and asked them to talk to him about it and if it happens again than do something about it but not label it as a Sexual Harassment.
Grade 1 pupil in Massachusetts suspended for sex harassment Canadian PressPublished: Thursday, February 09, 2006 BROCKTON, Mass. (AP) - A six-year-old boy is learning a lesson on the meaning of sexual harassment long before he'll be able to spell it.
The Grade 1 pupil was suspended for three days for sexual harassment after he put two fingers inside a classmate's waistband, school officials told his mother, Berthena Dorinvil. The boy told her he only touched the girl's shirt after the girl touched him.
Experts said only in rare, troubling cases can children that young truly sexually harass one another.
"The connotation is you're getting some kind of sexual gratification, or wanting sexual gratification, or are putting pressure on for some kind of sexual gratification, when a six-year-old doesn't have that capacity," said Christopher Murray, a civil rights lawyer who has handled school discipline cases.
Dr. Elizabeth Berger, a Philadelphia-area child psychiatrist, said this case seems to be an overzealous attempt to ensure students feel safe in school after years in which society was not attentive enough.
The boy's mother called the Jan. 30 suspension from Downey Elementary School outrageous. She said she can't even explain to her son what he did wrong because he's too young to understand.
"He doesn't know those things," she told the Enterprise newspaper of Brockton.
"He's only six years old."
Brockton school officials have not commented beyond a statement from Supt. Basan Nembirkow that said sexual harassment charges are always investigated and officials are trained to deal with them.
The Brockton School Committee defines sexual harassment among students, in part, as "uninvited physical contact such as touching, hugging, patting or pinching."
Grade 1 pupils who repeatedly touch classmates need to be disciplined and taught what's appropriate, said Nan Stein, a senior research scientist at the Center for Research on Women at Wellesley College. But don't call the apparent discipline problem "sexual harassment" because Grade 1 pupils just don't understand it, she said.
There have been similar cases. In 1996, a New York City Grade 2 pupil was suspended for kissing a girl and ripping a button off her skirt - an idea the boy said he learned from his favourite book Corduroy, about a bear with a missing button. Earlier that year, a Lexington, N.C., six-year-old was separated from his class after kissing a classmate on the cheek.
cRAZy sTuFf!! So do you think this was fair to suspend this 6 yr old for alleged Sexual Harrasment???
I guess I should answer my own question: mmmm I dont think he should have been...I dont think 6yr olds know what SH is...thats kinda a bad stigma to put on a child...
