you *can* sue anyone you want.  that said, i fail to see what outcome would have changed if it had been detected earlier....\n\n1. no harm came to your son. - no harm, no value can be assigned\n2. he would have simply needed surgery "sooner" - identical outcome\n3. it is not your *right* to have your son be an athelete. - no civil rights were violated.

No you shouldn't...You should only sue if there is a monetary loss in my opinion.  Too many people are quick to sue because they see it as easy money.  I'm glad to know that your son wasn't hurt!

There child advocacy reprsentives, omnibuds person, child avoicate lawyer located in every court system and there services are free. there are also many excelllent lawyers that will take your case probono. Request a lawyer  represent your daughter to protect her rights. \nThey are there to protect the rights of the child. Your child will need a phychological evaluation by a child phycholist who will testify on her behalf so this man can never hurt her again.They can testify on your daughters behalf as to the exstent of the abuse and testify as to her capibilitiy tell the truth. I'm a literacy teacher and school couseler in Bay Area. My mother was a Social worker in L.A County for twenty five years she specializd in child abuse and incest.  She was the court omnibus person/child avocate for the court. They will also likely do an assesment on the father. If you could get the backing of any of the other molested children it would help. The court takes the recomindations court appointed people very seriously, relying on there expertice and recomidations in these cases because a childs life and welware are at stack.\n\nPress charges against the man for attemped rape, aledge mostation on your fear for your childs life. If you want this mans rights taken away start showing the court who he is. A monster is killing your child. I Know these are strong words but when a child is devistated like this it can be life threatenning?  will she or he ever be the same again. If these childen are ever to be whole they are going to need the help of family members that will be there for them and most of all BELIVE YOUR CHILD.\n\nSome times the the child ends up hating the non molesting parent more if not the same as her attacker. Why? because they feel they new and did'nt rescue them worst of all they allow the molester to get away with it and stay friends talk to them treat this molester with dignity. \n\nLet your child see your are not going to give up stay by what she says dont let the police, court, whoever make you feel its just a waste of time.  Thats wrong and justice is not being surved.\n \nThe DA's office is the one who decides on which caces go to court and who's going to be charged to what extent. They  \nthey didn't stop it  weather your daughter or other children are involved your

Talk with the principal immediately. It is completely ridiculous that your child should be left to suffer for the sake of the lowest common denominator. Fight on behalf of your child.

Vykky, I am saddened to hear that even people, of what should be a mature age, still revel in mocking children in such a juvenile manner. Since I am not an expert in jurisprudence I can’t state emphatically whether you can or cannot sue for offensive statements made by an employee of a business, or the failure of the manager to take corrective action against that employee. I would surmise that you couldn’t sue on those grounds, because if you could, the court system would be bogged down with a host of law suits because people get insulted every day in business establishments. \n\nMy bigger question to you is why would you want to sue? So a small-minded person foisted an insult at your small daughter who, given her age, is not even aware of how hurtful the comment was. So what? Doesn’t the very attempt to sue, set a bad precedent with your daughter, teaching her that every infraction made against her requires some sort of retributive action. Be the bigger person and ignore the small-minded person, and the company for the inconsequential people that they are. That is the best lesson you can teach your daughter, and they are never too young to learn it. The aphorism “Sticks and stones may break my bones but words can never hurt me” might be a statement made by children, but it is sagacious advice for adults as well.

"The judge is not sure if she can overrule jurisdiction because the children do not reside in that county anymore."\n\nPrecludes providing you with any relevant answers in this forum.\n\nGiven the obvious complexity of the case, you would be extremely foolish to follow advice given over the Internet.\n\nSave  your money and hire a lawyer.

Yes, I see your point completely.\nI would like to sue Miss Conduct for threatening my lousy kids, also.

Not at all. These people need to be stopped before they hurt a child. If you are worried go back to the chat room and ask what they do to keep you safe. I don't think you can be traced by the paedo though because of data protection. If you are still worried, contact the police and explain the situation and say that you are worried about it. They will do everything they can to keep you safe.

If the mom co-signed to be responsible for the son's expenses if he did not pay them, you can sue just her. If there are 5 people involved in an issue, you can sue all 5 or just 1. Does not matter. If the mom is smart, she will give the son up.

You need to pose your question to a lawyer in your local area. Your son may have a remedy through the courts, but there may be time restrictions that could bar recovery.

i'm glad you got a conclusion that offered you some type of closure.  i'm hopeful that your child is seeing a child therapist at the perpetrator's expense to offset any issues that may arise in the future.\n\npeace.

find the place that did this to her and sue them.  They aren't allowed to do this without parental consent.

I would suggest that you consult with an attorney.\n\nIn almost every state, if there is a CPS proceeding, or child in need of care proceeding, you are eligible for an appointed attorney if you cannot afford one.\n\nI urge you to contact an attorney licensed in your state to assist you.  For a referral if you are not eligible for a free attorney, contact your local or state bar association.  Please... don't try and do it cheaply.  Your kids are worth it aren't they?

Accidents happen. There's no sense in pressing charges if that's the case.\n\nHowever, in the event of an injury that required medical attention, asking the 14-year-old's parents to pay (if that child alone was at fault) or split the bill (if your son was involved too - horseplay, etc.) wouldn't be unreasonable.
