A battle is brewing between some parents and the Mooresville Consolidated School Corp. over a teacher some feel is involved too intimately with children.
A 41-second cell phone video shows a junior varsity softball player licking the toes of teacher Jody Monaghan, a former softball coach. Monaghan now coaches the girls' swimming team.
"There were 14-year-olds on that bus. I know several of them. I've known them since they were little girls," said parent Lenny Adair. "It's inappropriate at best."
But some parents said Monaghan has been engaging in inappropriate contact with children for years.
Sheila Helton said she pulled her 15-year-old daughter off the softball team after Monaghan began sending her text messages that Helton felt were inappropriate.
"She came to me one day and said, 'Mom, I think my coach is weird,'" Helton said. "(At) 11:30, 12 o'clock at night, some of the messages were, 'What are you doing? I'm bored.'"
