BELLMEAD, Texas, Dec. 11 The father of a 4-year-old Bellmead, Texas, boy said his son hugged his teacher's aide; school officials said it was sexual contact.

Now the family is trying to have references to the incident removed from the child's record because the boy is too young to understand, KVXX-TV in Waco, Texas, said.

The father said his boy hugged a teacher's aide while waiting to board a school bus. But the principal said the pre-schooler rubbed his face in the chest of the female employee, demonstrating inappropriate physical behavior interpreted as sexual contact and/or sexual harassment.The father, saying it was silly to so misread his son's action, demanded that school administrators remove the incident from his son's file and apologize.

Sexual references on the discipline referral were removed, but the father was told your request for an apology by the aide and removal of all paperwork regarding this incident is denied.The file lists the incident as inappropriate physical contact, which the dad said he will seek to have changed as well.

    By: Lonna Ruch , Sat, 16 Dec 2006 01:05:44 GMT

    What happens next? Is every grandmother going to be accused of sexual harassment when we hug our grandkids? Sexual harassment when we wipe their little bottoms at diaper change time. These people either have to much time on their hands or just don't plain care about how little kids needs assurance. You would think that they would have more pressing problems to handle with a school of youngsters!!
