    My ex girlfriend was a secondary school teacher in all boys school in the mid to late 00's. She told me she left working at the school because the 17-18yo boys in 5th/6th year would every September hit on the first year students as young as 12 in the toilets and when they or her complained to the principal he did nothing about it.

    Dirty sick b@stards. Christian ethos school btw.

    Just because someone is under 18 doesn't mean they aren't a sexual predator

    I think you should need written parental permission between, say, 14 and 18. Then once legally an adult, it's their decision.

    Yeah but there letters I'd love to see :D

    Dear Dad
    You know that boy I have been seeing........

    To whom it may concern,

    I hereby give permission for any person between the age of 14 and 18 permission to have sexual intercourse with my 16 year old daughter ESFORUMENA at random.

    I do so because she being a minor, is not considered old enough to make this decision herself so I, an adult and her parent, have deemed it acceptable on her behalf

    Signed,
    Parent of the year

    So your saying that a Christian ethos school didn't have a problem with 17/18 year old lads coming onto 12 year old boys????
    To be honest that sounds like horse ****!

    Oh I'm sure they do have a problem with it but out of sight is out of mind. Image is a lot more important. Up until fairly recently these schools, Catholic church (COI too) and the state didn't have a problem with Christian Brothers or priests coming on to 12 year old boys.

    16 or 17 it isn't much of a difference. Like already mentioned improve the education.

    When I was taught sex ed I got the doziest biology teacher describe it to us. Nothing about stis or contraception. Just the mechanics and the gruesome image of him shagging his wife :/
