Bravo!
There are children that have been sexually abused and do behave in manners that can/should be taken as harassment. Those kids may miss a marker that they need help b/c EVERYTHING is considered harassment.
True victims may feel less of a right to be hurt if told "OH IT'S JUST KIDS BEING KIDS AGAIN"
Parents that are not engaged enough to teach proper social behavior to their children will have the PTA on their side b/c "good parents and kids" are being "picked on" too.
Of course this article only gives one side of the story- apparently the child that the boy touched did complain- still in general- these things are getting out of control IMHO
