Pretty messed up story. Should mothers hop to treating their boys like fathers treat their daughters? Might help balance things out.

And the school really should have expelled the girl that made the confirmed false accusation.

Let me be clear: I abhor the fact that violence against women is still such a problem in our society. It breaks my heart every time I read about the latest young woman who has been attacked, raped and even murdered on our streets. I’ve always taught my sons to respect women and make sure their female friends get home safe.

Yep, here's the typical "I'm not being antifeminist or anything, but..." disclaimer.

Also, does this writer's heart break for any young man who was viciously murdered? If this writer had a daughter, would she teach her to respect men and make sure her male friends get home safe?

I do wonder why there is an expectation that a 13-year-old boy should understand all the nuances of relationships that often confuse grown men. Perhaps my son did make mistakes that made the girl who chose to call the police feel uncomfortable, and if that is the case I am genuinely sorry for her.

"Men are dumb cavemen who don't understand relationships" comment aside, do I even need to explain how completely ridiculous this sentence is? The girl might have felt uncomfortable and might have had an overreaction? Is this mother so indoctrinated by feminism that she has to twist everything to make sure her son is at fault in some capacity?

What a messed up story. So sad and ridiculous. Good for the mother for writing this.

I am sure I didn't even know what the word nonce meant when I was a teenager. I don't recall ever hearing the word at secondary school.

What is the real underlying cause for our society's histrionic obsession with sexual crime and sexual deviancy? I believe there is psychological explanation. How many of these so-called 'nonce-bashers' and 'pedo-hunters' are actually secretly pedophiles who are overcompensating and projecting? Shakespeare said it well, "The lady doth protest too much, methinks."

I knew that adults engaged in this kind of public shaming and social shunning, but I did not believe that children were capable of it. Obviously, I am naive.

If you have kids, or if you intend to have kids, then you need to tell them about the dangers of underage sexting and warn them of the repercussions if they get caught. Under British law, if someone under the age of 18 takes a picture of themselves, then they can potentially incur a criminal penalty for a child p***ography offence.

It sounds like this boy might have delayed social skills, possibly due to a neurodevelopmental disorder such as Autism Spectrum Disorder or ADHD. If so, this makes this story even more tragic, because children with these conditions should be given greater care and protection by society.

Poor kid.

An interesting article from a mother about how her son has been treated by the school and police with allegations against him and how the school treats boys different to girls.

Shame how some women don't give a shit about men until it affects their sons.

Her wording in the article is even sadder, because it gives the vibe she doesnt really want to aknowledge the root of the problem here, even if she is sympathetic to her son she sounds like she might dabble in feminism.

I can’t imagine being that kid; it’s gotta be god awful when you try so hard to be yourself and to be accepted and get treated like a genuine predator; I dealt with so much at that age that I don’t think I could’ve survived something like that.

Huge props to the kid for sticking it out, and I really hope some day someone can come along and show him true love; i don’t think he’s going to be pursuing it much anytime soon.

where were the grown-ups in this?

They were right there. They watched it happen and were fine with it.

Another innocent life destroyed, but hey, it's only a male life so I guess everyone with the power to stop it will watch from the sidelines.

Anti-male indoctrination has been a part of a segment of the feminist movement for years and has only recently been recognized because of the rise of the MeToo movement which allowed some people to demonize any male behavior no matter how innocent. Some people, I believe, have a hidden agenda that has nothing to do with empowering women and all to do with their own personal benefit.

I saw things heading this way when, in the 1970’s, I took a sex ed class in high school. Although some of the students were couples who wanted to take the class together, the instructor, a lesbian, had all of the girls sit in front of her class and the boys sit in the back. She only addressed the girls with every class consisting of some version of “boys only want one thing”. When we raised our hands with questions we were ignored. Eventually, we all basically checked out of the class and would spend the time sitting in the back talking, reading, etc.

I thought about that teacher and how she tried to use her class to indoctrinate female students when I was at university and was dating a woman who was an RA at our university’s women’s college. One day, I was in her room when some of the students wanted to speak with her about something that was concerning them. The school made first year students take an Intro to Women’s Studies class. The instructor, also a lesbian, was telling these young women that, in order to be a feminist, they had to be a lesbian. These students were straight and some of them had boyfriends. They did, though, want to be feminists and were confused about what they were being told and were questioning whether it was proper. My girlfriend told them that the instructor was wrong and they could be heterosexual and still be feminists. She also suggested that they file a complaint with a department head or with the dean because what the instructor was doing wasn’t education…it was indoctrination. These young women were too afraid to take that step and just relieved that they didn’t have to change their sexual orientation in order to be feminists.
