by Ernest J. Zarra III

Overview

America’s Sex Culture: Its Impact on Teacher-Student Relationships analyzes recent trends. It includes teacher arrests and student false allegations, and why this culture has ensnared teachers and students, and why it is one of the causes leading to arrests.

• An analysis of sex-trafficking and how this has impacted high schools and colleges.
• Sex addiction and pornography and the effect each has on today’s students and teachers.
• Social media and how it has eased its way into the lives of many.

• Anecdotal evidence concerning teacher arrests and why our nation is more sexualized than ever.
• The impact of America’s sex culture and its impact upon the developing brains of students and how they relate to teachers.

Dr. Zarra aptly describes the changes in today's teacher-student relationships. Different attitudes and behaviors regarding sex have found their ways into the classrooms and are affecting the education landscape. The affects are apparent, and so is the need for concise definitions of boundaries.
