You are the one who drew the conclusion.

I see there is a few sensitive souls here who take it personally! Even Britman was the one to point out the obviously statement how male teachers chase young girls. 

 

Bring it on the confused emotions, I do not care ????

Thats a good question, but my best guess, those countries some of us would like to associate us self with?

I know it was a good question.  My best guess is that the phrase "Most civilian countries" is meaningless nonsense.

Why would you need to "best guess" the content of your own comment?

Yes, time for you to brush up on the law Celsius...

"Federal law prohibits an American citizen or resident to travel to a foreign country with intent to engage in any form of sexual conduct with a minor...!"

"Intent" being the operative word in your quote.

 

Nope. It is all here in black and white. Scary that as a Canadian and probably decades younger that yourself I have to teach you your own laws

Good luck proving he traveled with intent.  Sounds like he traveled with the intent of working as a teacher.  

Which is why all teachers are here.

 

They are here for the love and purpose of teaching.

 

Not to have sex.

You just want to bury a farangy for having a GF.....................

What do you think of King Charles III meeting his wife at 16...?

When speaking on behalf others, it will at best be a guess! 

 

What is a civilized country to you? 

 

For me, it is a country where minors is protected from abusers, and where kids and young people can grow up in safe environment, without pressure to be used by any authorities, or those who can execute power and influence their future negatively.

Yes. That's it.

 

I am simply educating all you fools not to make the same mistake. He is a lowly tiktoker, and a sexpat English teacher, not King Charles, LOL. Nice to see you backpaddling once proven wrong.... again.

Did she get a happy life as a princess, or did she get robbed for her youth? 

 

As far as I can understand, she was a fragile person, who ended up with severe mental health problems

Age of consent is 16 almost everywhere (except the USA and Muslim countries).

I can't summon up any 'moral outrage' for a guy banging a 16yo.

Its called empathy with a person who obviously did not have any control of her life after meeting Charles. 

 

You might not see it that way,

Its different when banging a teacher means a difference to your standing in a subject.

So you're perfectly ok with a teacher banging his underage student?  I'd imagine most parents would not agree with your "moral stance."

Best not to let your kids interact with foreigners for any reasons IMHO.

Most foreign guys in Thailand are the lowest of the low both morally, socially and financially.

discretion over temptation...

The original article doesn't say he was cought in the act and that it was recorded on video. It says there were videos of their bedroom antics and that the girl's mother filed the complaint after the girl had been seeing the guy for 5 months. 

 

Videos will likely add to his troubles, courtesy of Computer Crimes Act. 

money, money, money.... 5 months into the relationship and no complains but all of a sudden the mother goes to the police, jealousy? no enough pay out?... if the girl stayed with him for 5 months maybe it was consensual, no crime

I would say the reason is parental extortion.

They think the guy has some money and are trying to get some of it.

Can't see this going anywhere, he'll pay them, and the charges will go away.

At worst he'll have to marry her.

You believe wrong, age of consent in Thailand is 15.

Guy was charged with taking her from her parents without their permission, not for having sex with her.

 

At 16 he could have legally banged her as much as he wanted, as long as she didn't 'sleep over'.

He'll be really kicking himself about this fact now.

 

Especially, if he gets charged with statutory rape when he lands back to America.

 

In any case, what was he thinking?? What a Diddy.

I will not be casting the first stone in this case.

 

Good luck young man.  I hope you can get your life back on track.

Haha... better days for Luke

As a fellow teacher in Thailand, this disgusts me. You should never lay your hands in any way on your students, no matter their age. I teach 12 to 15 year olds at an Islamic school and I cannot for the life of me imagine even touching the girls. I feel bad already if there's any skin-to-skin contact and try to avoid it.

Even if I taught 18+ year olds, I'd stay far away. With a minor, it's even worse.

 

At the very least, this guy should be deported and blacklisted.

[chiman]

Gross... he's an idiot 

[ravip]

"some young attractive things throwing themselves at you"

 

Incredible, how some offenders are justified and protected and others are bashed unmercifully here at AN - if you look closely... there is a clear pattern how its done.

Do they all wear those long things at your school, heads covered too.

 

Mind you, at your job it could be a beheading thing...????
