Excerpt:

A teacher in Ohio is suing her former school district, alleging discrimination: She says she was forced to teach younger kids despite her fear of them. Maria Waltherr-Willard, 61, who worked for Mariemont City Schools for 35 years, was reassigned from a high school to a junior high in Cincinnati, The Cincinnati Enquirer reported. Her lawsuit claims the district discriminated against her based on age and her "pedophobia," which can mean an extreme fear or anxiety around young children, the Enquirer said.  The suit was filed in June 2012. When Waltherr-Willard was transferred to a junior high school, she reportedly asked if there would be a high school position for her the following year. The school district claimed there were no open positions at the high school for her, according to Fox19. com in Cincinnati.  She eventually retired in March 2011.
