TV1 Sunday’s documentary
They are an endangered species when it comes to working with toddlers. Those brave enough to chance it run the risk of being accused of child abuse. It’s serious, unfair the teachers say, and what’s more it’s bad for the kids.
Once again Ian Sinclair has shown it the way it is.

NZ teacher Peter Joyce’s settled life was disrupted when a woman he had never met accused him of historic rape. With a unique brand of angry humour, his diary plots the stages of his despair and traces his attempts to find justice in the face of the current insistence that we must “believe the victim”.
Dry Ice is a compelling memoir, but much more. The accusation made the writer a reluctant expert on similar cases from all over the world. He throws light on everything that limits public knowledge of false sexual allegations, from dangerous counselling to flawed statistics, and he exposes police investigation methods as blinkered, inefficient and insensitive.
You can purchase Dry Ice on Kindle for just $6.00 here: https://www.amazon.com/Dry-Ice-Peter-Joyce-ebook/dp/B01N19JKAR

Staggering to see the difference over the ditch. How regressive is NZ huh?

Good stuff Julie. Will send this around the world to get the journalist and his station some international numbers to encourage the balanced line they seem to be taking. Really like the lawn mower DYI and soft sword stuff a real lot. Thought men in their position would be forced to teach a PC agenda, but admiringly they have kept their perspect as men too. Excellent work!

Thanks Julie.
Good to see the ‘sword’ fighting.
In Korea boys and girls go to Tae Kwon Do and Hapkido classes from a young age. It’s seen as an essential aprt of developing self confidence, esteem and responsibility.

I can’t locate the ‘A few good men’ article on the ‘Sunday’ website; can someone help me out and explain where exactly it is?

I just tried this
and it appears to be a dead link.
TVNZ didn’t waste much time burying the issue under other ‘news’.
