Indiana school superintendent charged after pretending sick student was her son to get him treatment

Everything is going to work out well for the lady. According to the link:

S"mitherman’s attorney said that an agreement had been made with the Madison County Prosecutor’s Office which would mean that she won’t have to plead guilty or be given a criminal record over the incident, although she may be required to pay a fine and do community service.

“It’s already been determined she is not going to have any convictions for what she did,” her attorney Bryan Williams told the Herald. “That’s the prosecutor’s realization she made a mistake but with good intentions. It’s not like they are giving her special treatment. This is for people who have never had arrests or convictions before.”

In addition, it appears she will not lose her job.

It's a very good ending for everyone concerned.
 

It appears that she has a very kind and compassionate heart, and that's to be admired in a supt. However, she's getting way too personally involved in her position. She's only setting herself up for more of this down the road. Her BEST bet is to set i[ programs that could help more than one child in this situation, and then take the lead on it--NOT get so personally involved from her position as supt.

The place to get involved is through other avenues in her life, such as church work.
 
" Children are among the most vulnerable to leprosy and face life-altering challenges because of physical impairments and stigmatization associated with this neglected disease.
Children affected by leprosy remain invisible and many cases go undetected, the expert says. Archaic laws in more than 50 countries discriminate against those affected, treating them as social outcasts."
 
Its an indictment of US healthcare. She took a sick child to the doctor who refused to treat the kid because he couldnt pay.? Thats Victorian. We used to have shit like that before we had the NHS.

Now in the UK you might have to drink water out of vases in the hospital or wait four hours for the ambulance to come get you. So there's that.

So you condone the way that this child was treated ? Why am I not shocked.?

Since you love shoving words in people's mouths, Tommy, why are you obsessed with America but hate us so much?

Is there nothing think about in Wales at all, other than your "finest" export Prince Charles? oh dear

You brought up the NHS, I responded to it, then you shoved words in my mouth about the child's treatment which I didn't say. Tommy, shoving words in people's mouths means you know you can't win the argument. But we knew that already. You can't win many arguments here which is apparent to many, so you resort to juvenile tactics like putting words in people's mouths.

Do you think that child had a right to be treated ?

No one has a "right" to healthcare, or food, or shelter. I don't know what you mean when you say "right", Tommy. Was it the moral thing to do, yes. Does he have a "right", no. And the drs and nurses were correct in wondering who this woman was bringing him in, since she was NOT a parent and NOT a legal guardian. Human trafficking, anyone?

Its a right in the civilised world.

Because doctors are your slaves who are not permitted to charge for their labor.

Exactly. Their "inalienable rights" is the sweat off your back. So gimmee

Actually they can and do. Your ignorance knows no bounds.
Socialism ensures that the sick are never turned away. Its what Jesus would have wanted.

It's amazing to me that the people who have not committed their way to the Lord, who do not proclaim Him their Savior are always the QUICKEST ones to know and say exactly what He would do in every situation.

Ain't that a kick in the head?

Jesus would not have, Tommy. But Jesus is no longer with us, here, in the flesh. He is seated at the Right Hand of the Father at the moment, see. What he said about the government is this: give to Caesar what is Caesar's and to God what is God's. That means, to me, to gov't you give the bare minimum and you give to charity apart from government.

In any case my former statement stands. It's those who read the words of Jesus the least and who seek to know Him the least who always crow about "THIS IS WHAT JESUS WOULD WANT". It's insulting Tommy, you probably little know how prideful it is.
