How Does Everyone Else Feel About This?

[faco21]

I feel it's wrong for my son to email his former teacher to ask if it's okay if he visits her classroom in school because she's married and he is the opposite gender of her.She is a married 25 year old teacher therefore it's wrong for my son to ask if it's okay if he visits the school.Her husband will be jealous and upset about this because it's wrong.If my son was a female I would be perfectly fine with my daughter emailing this teacher to ask this teacher if it's okay if she visits the school but since my son is a male,it's wrong.

[ummmm]

One time I went to my old school, which my kids attended, my ex PE teacher gave me a hug.

How scandalous is that??!

And I shall be meeting my male best mate later and leaving hubby at home!

Sobs quietly in the corner ;-(

[ummmm]

Which country are you living in? I suspect that the attitudes of the people involved are going to be heavily coloured by their ethnicity and upbringing.

Now I'm happy ;-).

[ummmm]

Woof...he's in the US and if this isn't a wind up then he's a weirdo.

[RATTER15]

Wind up for sure!

[ummmm]

The sad thing is there are actually people like that who think men and women can't be friends.

[1ozzy]

Most definitely, but it's made for some fun reading ;-)

And there are some very controlling people on the face of the earth, sadly.

This couldn't be the individual who resigned from AB in a hissy fit a week or so, could it?

Just back from a great day and evening out last night with family (irrelevant to here) and logged in to see where i left off last night, scanned the replies, somewhere I got lost between my son and my wife emailing someone of another gender, is the teacher your wife? don't reply, I'm just logged in 5 mins and already decided to put kettle on and leave this to other genders with more patience than me.

Your son is not 'a homewrecker.' The teacher does not deserve to lose her job. You are wrong. Your Pastor is wrong. Listen to your therapist.

Plenty of us males have had crushes on young female teachers in our time

You can't dictate who he should and shouldn't fancy, let alone who he can and can't email

Another case of 'time to cut the apron strings'
