[QUOTE="Scent of Cedar *, post: 710463, member: 17461"] Why then pigless could you not speak to the principal about teachers ~ not one specific teacher, but any teacher ~ and the ethical questions implicit to online gaming with students over whom she holds the power of a grade. Is it not true that the players in these games are usually unknown to one another? A little like here in CD, where we know one another but not in our day to day lives? How did the kids find out they were gaming with their teacher...did she tell them? This is just wrong on so many levels, pigless. Then though it doesn't feel like you are protecting your son, in reality you are. You are walking beside him. You know the situation and its dangers and you will be there for your son through the time of its ending. Ferb is eighteen, pigless. As far as he knows, he [I]does[/I] know what he is doing. Could you practice detaching from the hatred you feel for this reprehensible piece of rottenness teacher, do you think? You know why you aren't blasting the rotten thing out of the water. So, until something changes and you decide to act, working to detach from the feeling of hatred makes sense to me. It's like, a survival mechanism. Given your description of the "teacher" (What ever happened to the days when teachers were respectable and even a little dowdy?!?) taking food from your table (!) and treating the mother of one of her student's so casually...I wonder whether this teacher who is crossing moral lines with her students isn't also enjoying watching their parents squirm. What an awkward situation for all of your family to have been placed in through a teacher's inappropriate behaviors. It's mind boggling. This whole thing is wrong. It's [I]because[/I] we entrust them with our children that the moral standards of the teacher must be beyond reproach. This should not be happening, whether she is actually toying with her students physically or not. Support Ferb as best you can now. Gather evidence. Do research.

Children should not be forced into situations where they are protecting their teachers from appropriate parental response to the actions the teacher is taking. What in the world, pigless. It is difficult enough to raise children without having our relationships to our children subverted by their teachers. I can't imagine what she was thinking to have taken food from your table without asking. Subtle alliance with your children and against you, right? I am glad you posted about it pigless. At least you aren't alone with it anymore. What a nasty excuse for a teacher. Cedar [/QUOTE]
