School drops sexual harassment claim against 6-year-old who kissed girl
Girl's mother, teacher in the system, pulled some strings to slam this kid.
(CNN) -- Amid a tidal wave of negative publicity, a Colorado school system has let a 6-year-old boy return to school and said it won't classify his kissing a girl on the hand as sexual harassment.
The story of first-grader Hunter Yelton made national news and spurred outrage this week after word spread that his school near Colorado Springs suspended him for the kiss and accused him of sexually harassing the girl.
On Wednesday night, CNN affiliate KRDO reported that Canon City Schools Superintendent Robin Gooldy met with Hunter's parents. The superintendent then changed Hunter's disciplinary offense from "sexual harassment" to "misconduct."
The boy has also returned to school at the Lincoln School of Science & Technology.

I don't think some authorities realize what it does to their credibility and indeed their legitimacy when they have such a quantum overreaction to a normal behaviour, followed by a very public climb-down.
For things I saw at school that merited a simple "tsk-tsk" and a shaken finger at the student when I was in the first grade, kids these days would probably be tased, held at gunpoint, and thrown into a paddy-wagon.
The irony is, that the teacher's response in those days was quite sufficient to stop the undesirable behaviour!
