Maybe I'm different than most people, but I don't mix business and personal relationships. I don't really talk about my personal life with my co-workers (other than a comment here or there),
So you don't have any break room talk? Chat about your kids and their kids over lunch? Talk about the ball game from the weekend?
Yeah, that's werid. And a little serial killer-ish.

Why would anyone? Thats stuff I share with very few people. Sure not talking about it at work.

are you asking this under the assumption that this was an extortion plot or that this was an actual grooming type incident
I guess there are three possibilities:
1. No extortion. Whole thing is BS.
2. There was extortion but only after it became clear that Coach Creepylap had his eyes on Brooke.
3. The whole thing was basically a honeypot operation from the get-go.
Under none of these scenarios is the teacher any less guilty or not morally culpable. If scenario 3 is the reality, then I think we can agree that Brooke was also in the wrong.
Under scenario 2, I think I give Brooke a pass. At worst, she got a little overzealous, Chris Hansen-style.

I would hope a teacher care more about students than a boss cares about employees.
Absolutely not, and they tell prospective teachers not to get personally involved.
Most just can't help themselves and have a savior complex.

You must have hated the tv show "Boy Meets World"
Do you think Mr. Feeney was a groomer?

Its a tv show, a scripted performance and isn't real

I work remotely, my clients are all 1000+ miles away from me. But, we do chat via conference calls multiple times per week.

Yeah, if you got busted doing something like this once already and didn't learn your lesson, there is likely no hope for you with controlling impulses.

quote:I think youre boundary of "personal" is probably fine upon reading your posts. I disagree with you on the teacher attending events thing but thats about it. (although i really dont do that either, I just dont necessarily see a problem with it.) I dont think we disagree as much as i initially thought
I manage relationships with my clients, I'm a consultant. I establish a rapport with clients without getting "personal".

when you see and work with the same people daily for months/years, you're going to develop personal relationships with some of them if you're not some sort of anti-social freak

IMO, there's a huge difference between polite and personal. You can be cordial and polite without creating a personal relationship with someone.
An example of an overstep is one that was mentioned earlier in this thread. A poster asked about a teacher talking to a student about their piano playing and attending a piano performance by the student. That's just weird, and crossing a boundary, IMO.
Any sort of contact outside of normal school sanctioned hours is weird, and crossing a line.

Wait...a teacher taking an interest in a student's extracurricular development and choosing to support that student in their endeavor is weird and crossing a line?
If they play basketball and the teacher encourages them and attends the game, that's fine, but if they encourage the same with piano, it's creepy?
I don't get this take

I've had jobs before where I wasn't this far removed from "co-workers", but I still had boundaries. Sure there were some surface level "how's your family" conversations, but we weren't hanging out after work hours or anything. I don't go to work to make friends, I have enough friends outside of work. I'm a pretty affable person, and I don't make it awkward but I also don't offer up a ton about my personal life outside of work.

If my daughter's male math teacher attends her piano recital, or her basketball game (specifically to see her), that's fricking weird.

I see where he's coming from with one being in school and one being out of school. I think the issue lies in the ability to see things like individual music recitals done in school. A lot of schools dont offer the ability to see these done in a school setting, and when they are it's during school hours (at least from what I've seen here).

well considering you know absolutely nothing about me how about you stay in yours?
the problem is teachers, who, by and large, are not as smart as they think they are,
getting involved in "student relationships" aka grooming, if you realize it or not.
They ARE NOT YOUR KIDS.
