Did you even bother to read the article? (or did I misinterpret your post? did you mean she shouldn't have to even be possible to face those charges, as in these shouldn't be the maximum charges?)
OT: I'd probably try to talk to my son and understand how this whole thing really happened. Was she manipulating him? Was he just trying to get her laid and made her believe he was madly in love with her (or something of that matter)? Or was it all consensual and they both really love eachother? Then proceed appropriately.In accepting the plea agreement, Judge Patricia Summe granted prosecutors' recommendation to sentence Jones to five years of diversion but no jail time, and she won't have to register as a sex offender. The diversion requires Jones to report to a probation officer, and undergo drug tests.
On the other hand, I'd probably be a little proud of my son too... society would somehow make me want to be proud (not that I blame society for me being the man who I am today, it just had its little contribution to my mind).

I don't think I would be very happy. There would be a long talk between me and each of them individually and then a talk with them together.
she was hot, so it was ok
He actually makes the single worst target for blackmail ever. If she tells, he could claim rape and it could blow up in her face. He essentially had a free pass if he ever decided to leave her because she could do nothing to him for fear of her secret getting out and potential jail time. Anything she did could have been easily countered with, "Go ahead and tell, you'll go to jail."
I'd get mad at him so my gf doesn't get mad at me.
Then I'd pat him and give him the don't tell your mother look.
Yeah, I'd be a horrible father
"his family were uncooperative with them and sided with his former teacher."
I love the fact that his own family sided with the teacher,if they don't have a problem with it, I don't think I should.

He's freaking 17. And good for him! I agree that it's unethical for the teacher to be in a relationship for the student, but I don't believe in the magic line the law has invented between 17 and 18. Plenty of folks over 18 are still immature idiots. Plenty of people under 18 have regular sex in loving, consenting relationships. I only care that noone was abusing the other. Though I do agree it's not something a teacher should do with a student, but that's an employment issue.
Props to the family for siding with the teacher.
Human progress isn't measured by industry. It's measured by the value you place on a life.
Just, be kind.
I think he asked parents.
ummm isnt this months old? i remember seeing this on the news a few months ago the same exact story and she admitted to it way back then from the start.
either way hes 17 it doesnt matter, in the majority of states 16 is the legal age of consent.

My son would never do this if I had a girlfriend which I do want but I digress. My son WOULD NEVER do it, I'd teach him manners.

I would probably be happy yet annoyed. I am not a fan of double standards yet I would probably feel good about my son having this notch on his belt.
The amount of people that don't comprehend positions of power compromising informed consent in this thread is astounding.

Doesn't work that way.But I can guarentee this wouldn't happen ever.
I can say that there is most certainly a double standard when it comes to this kind of thing. I have 4 boys and a girl and if this was one of my boys, you get high fives (unless the teacher forced them in which case someone's getting a beat down, although she is/was a cheerleader so that may merit some re-evaluation). If it was my daughter, regardless if it was consensual or not, someone's getting a beat down and she would be grounded until she moved out of the house.
It's very similar to how it's considered OK for a man to sleep around yet not OK for a woman to do the same.
