(15,647 posts)That in itself is a big no-no when one is employed in the public sector, even if it is between older consenting adults of the same age. In this case, she is showing that she does not understand that so long as these young people are students that she is potentially supposed to be teaching, even if they are not in her class, and that she needs to keep a professional demeanor when dealing with them. Instead, she is showing all the signs of being a sexual predator, more interested in "taking advantage" of her position with these youths who are supposed to be under her tutelage than earning their respect as an English Teacher.
If it was a Social Services caseworker and her clients, would it be any different? Or, since some of these young people may not have been her students, a therapist at a group practice and a small number of single client customers at that practice, who may have been going to different doctors or therapists?
That woman shows no indication of common sense, especially since to be employed by her district, she probably needs to sign that she has read and understands the district's code of conduct agreement and knows this is a felony that she has been engaging in.
No 18-year old high-school student is worth losing your job over, no matter his or her cute the butt is.
