6-Year-Old Accused Of Sexual Harassment

by admin on February 9th, 2006

A boy at Downey Elementary in Brockton, Mass., was suspended from school for three days last month after school officials said that he sexually harassed a girl in his class.

According to WBAL, Elementary school officials called the boy’s mother, Berthena Dorinvil, on Jan. 30, and asked her to pick up her child from the school. Dorinvil said that officials told her that her son was being suspended for sexually harassing a 6-year-old female classmate.

“My son told me that the girl touched him first, so he touched her back,” Dorinvil said. “I was shocked. I was crying. I was out of control,” Dorinvil said.

Dorinvil said she “screamed’ when she heard about the disciplinary action.

Dorinvil said the boy is just 6 and has no idea what sexual harassment means. Dorinvil said her son wanted to know if the police were going to take him away.

“When he comes home, he says, ‘Mommy, are police going to arrest me?’ I can’t even make a phone call without him (asking) who I am speaking to. He is very frustrated because he is a very emotional kid. It bothers me so much to see my son go through this,” Dorinvil said.

Dorinvil said the children were playing on the floor and touching each other. She said her son touched the girl’s shirt, but not her skin. She said her son was suspended after being accused of putting two fingers inside the female classmate’s waistband and touching her back.

Dorinvil is outraged and has demanded that her son be transferred to another elementary school.
