A pregnant Texas middle school teacher has been charged over allegedly having sex with a 15-year-old student.
Katherine Harper was arrested over allegations she had an improper relationship with a student, which is considered to be a serious felony in the US.
According to Fox 5, Harper allegedly had a summer-long relationship with the student, who she met at Tidwell Middle School where she was teaching.
The 27-year-old is eight months pregnant, but it’s unclear whether the student is the father of the baby.

If it is his baby, he will be stung for child support for the next 18 years. That happened in a similar case in the US, where a boy who was raped ended up being stuck with child support for the resultant child.
That is really sad
Not surprised at all, the family courts are definitely not equipped to deal with this stuff and too often to gets thrown in the too hard basket.
A lot of states force raped girls & women to carry their rapist fetus to term because of regressive abortion laws too.
Fundamental Christianity has made the states a cess pool.
That's horrific. I hope for his sake he is not the father.
How times change. If that happened when I went to school, the 15 year old boy would have been bragging non stop.
He probably did, hence the "anonymous tip".
It probably is the same now. Every bf or male friend I've ever talked about this type of case with has ALWAYS said "I would have loved that when I was at school, I would have been a legend". But setting that aside, from the point of view of the adult teacher it is totally sick, wrong and exploitative - so it needs to be punished.
Well thank god we now live in a time where we realise that it's inappropriate for teachers to have sexual relationships with their students!
