Re: Reporting Abuse/Sexual Abuse Training

Every time I go to an event and I see those kids giving out free hugs I keep thinking FIRST is flirting with a sexual harassment lawsuit at every event. Sure it's all in the name of fun but if a girl doesn't want to be grabbed by some random guy then you cannot touch her. At all.
If her request goes ignored and she is upset enough about the whole thing she tells mommy and daddy who go out and get a man eating lawyer who sues the sponsor, the event and FIRST and everybody's good time is ruined.
Maybe teams need to start thinking about schooling their kids about what it and what isn't appropriate behavior at the competitions before somebody gets in big trouble.
