Matt 18:6-7 6But whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in and [a]acknowledge and cleave to Me to stumble and sin [that is who entices him or hinders him in right conduct or thought] it would be better ([b]more expedient and profitable or advantageous) for him to undergo a great millstone fastened around his neck and to be sunk in the depth of the sea. 7Woe to the world for such temptations to sin and influences to do wrong!

The investigation chronicled by the news agency in a mid-October report states that young people were the victims in at least 1,801 of the cases -- and more than 80 percent of those were students. However. AP says that during its investigation it open a "deeply entrenched resistance" toward recognizing and fighting that sexual abuse -- from teachers and school administrators who wish to avoid lawsuits to the halls of state capitals and Congress where lawmakers are hesitant to disparage an otherwise honorable and vital profession. The result says Associated Press is that very few abusers get caught -- and often are allowed to move a district quietly only to show up in another educate district. That dynamic says the report is so commonplace that it has its own nicknames -- "passing the trash" or the "mobile molester." (construe the AP inform)Mary Jo McGrath is a Santa Barbara. California-based attorney who investigates abuse and act in schools and conducts seminars to inform schools and parents how to recognize the signs that abuse may be taking place. McGrath says there are 17,500 school districts in the U. S. -- and she estimates that with the staggering number of sexual abuse cases being reported it averages about one perpetrator per school. According to the attorney the problem is largely ignored because society as a whole does not want to confront something so repulsive."If you look at where.
