Overstep Boundaries

Came across this article today and wanna share with my blOg readers...

A 32-year-old ex-teacher (married & mother of 2) pleaded guilty in court yesterday of having sex with the 15-year-old six times in a span of two months.

The women had struck up a friendship with e boy, then 14 & in Primary 6, while on an overseas school trip together.
They continued texting each other after their return, met often & their friendship deepened
Their relationship took a more amorous and illicit turn after he left the school to go to Secondary 1.
He confessed that he had fallen for her, and she agreed to be his girlfriend. The pair first had sex at a Pasir Ris chalet on Mar 10 last year & five more times thereafter at chalets, and twice at her marital home.
When she felt the boy had become 'overly possessive and temperamental', she tried to end the affair. However, he refused and threatened her and her family with violence.
Ridden with guilt and afraid of the consequences, she confided in a school counsellor and lodged a police report on her own the next day. That was when the affair was found out.


Jer Comments :
I read the comments from MOE , Teacher and students and they met a point where teacher should maintain a professional relationship with their students . What's wrong with students and teacher falling in love ? Did they commit any arson , murder ? Think back again .. have you ever heard of a students marrying a prof , anithing wrong ? i don think so .

Speaking from a growing adolescent to adulthood, the process of unrequited love can drove one to desperation where suicide was the chosen option or in fact it apply to anyone .
We humans do possess the animal or beastly instinct that would trigger off when circumstances demanded.Each of us have its threshold of endurance limit depending on the level of our inborn animal instinct.

Perhaps the teacher forgot about her responsibility and commitment toward her family but do you think you have the right to judge more ? how well do you know exactly know what kind of life she has been leading with her spouse and kids.

Well , there's neither right nor wrong i would say ...
I hope they wont see their action as a regret but capture some significant memories in their journey ....

Jermine slogan : Be daring enough to love and be brave to fall hard!
