The harm when women prey on boys
Being seduced by an older woman is seen as a young man's fantasy, but it is sexual abuse. Ian Munro asks whether female offenders get off too lightly.
HE IS a teenage boy, a student at a Hobart secondary college and one of the victims of Sarah Jane Vercoe, secondary teacher and sexual predator. By some perceptions he has lived a great adolescent male sexual fantasy: seduced by an attractive, sexually experienced older woman. But by his mother's account, as given to Tasmanian ABC television, he has been hurt, perhaps irreparably.
"It's had a huge impact. He's moody, very moody. He stays most of the time in his bedroom, comes out for his meals, goes back in and watches TV in his room."
Vercoe, then 24, had been conducting a sexual relationship with one of her students for six months when four other boys asked her for a lift home from a basketball game at Dodges Ferry, east of Hobart. They stopped on the way at a McDonald's and to buy alcohol, and she instead took them to her home after suggesting the group have an orgy.
Vercoe ultimately pleaded guilty to 14 charges โ seven of which related to sexual intercourse with the first boy, who had ended their relationship months before the post-basketball game read more:http://www.theage.com.au/news/national/the-harm-when-women-prey-on-boys/2006/03/17/1142582526948.html?page=fullpage

World has changed, I was working in a office at 15 and classed as a young adult, I was also at night school.
Had to pay for my own classes
Had to pay board.
How many 15 year olds today would be able to do that.

Sorry Lion here was I thinking that this was about the actions and legalilty of the actions of the adult .

Oh for goodness sake Iza.... She was 44 ffs! ๐ NOT 21!
Stick with related stories to the FACTS can you please!
I doubt any phscyogolical harm will come out of the OP's topic in respect to this boy...
He is probably grinning from ear to ear atm! (speculation, as I dont really know...comment withdrawn) ๐

We don't have many facts in the OP Jane.
Legally a 21 yr old is the same as a 44 year old are they not ?

janeababe - congratulations on keeping your cool and letting the 21 year old live.

Jane, child sexual abusers like to validate their crimes in lots of ways....the fact that a child under the age of consent may or may not enjoy it is not relevant in a Court of Law...though it is amazing what some think children should enjoy.
on โ12-02-2013 02:31 PM
Jane, Please read the OP he is 15 (below the age of consent)
She is 21 (legally an adult)
any sexual involvement (and there are many under that category) on her part and she is commiting a crime against a child.
