[entwisi]

This seems to be coming at a very apt time for me to think about this. An old teacher of mine was convicted last week of fiddling with a couple of kids, one of which is someone who was in my year at school and this happened when I was also being taught by this guy. Now I've looked but can't find any reference to the victims name. If I'm honest and think back I can't see or recall anything that rang any alarm bells back then. In fact the teacher concerned was actually the sort that was the butt of jokes and not one that a kid in my year would have felt compelled to do what has been alleged.

On top of that another bloke(the father of some friends) has also been found guilty of fiddling back 20 years ago. Again, Whilst not casting dispersions it does seem almost unbelieveable as I spent time in this house. I guess you really can't see what goes on in some houses.

Now when it comes to punishment I'm with all those who think that kiddie fiddling is abhorent and should be dealt with as strongly as possible. what is really freaking me is at this moment it affects two people I would never have thought were doing this.
