Half the school board thinks Keith deserves a third chance (that's right, not his first time making inappropriate comments to a child).

They say only he can decide if he wants to step down. They did vote in favor of censuring him. The rest of the school board members that laughed during the comment and touching of a child faced no repercussion. Some even pretended to be offended during the emergency hearing.

Are you ok?

Aside from the hole in my tooth, I'm fine. I'm speaking as someone who is currently making the transition from a negligent dentist. Since losing a tooth is a cosmetic issue, failing to identify a problem that can be clearly seen on an x-ray for over a year doesn't meet the standard of harm necessary for consequences. The selective failure of recent filling might have happened regardless.

...at this point, I'd have been less upset if this dude groped me. I'd let Satan work on me if he was a competent dentist.

I'm sorry you're going through that, and can only imagine how much anger you would have towards someone you paid for care, who provided care below the standard you expected, and you have no recourse. Physical pain blows, too. Weird take to welcome sexual assault, but it's clear how frustrated you are.
