[teens stories] OUR PE TEACHER'S FRIENDSHIP WITH THE PRETTY GIRLS IS SOLIDㅋㅋㅋㅋ

Quote from nahadoth

That's pretty messed up.

I had a teacher who always without fail left the door to his office wide open when he was with a student. I remember visiting him once with my friend and as we were about to close the door he quickly told us to leave it open. Then he explained that it was so baseless rumours wouldn't spread. He also explained how some students use such opportunities to uh... ask for better grades.

Had two teachers like this at school too and currently at my university many professors or instructors do the same. Rumors alone can cause your job. Also like you said some try to get better grades through immoral ways and it’s better to not allow situations where a fatal mistake could happen.

I think I've seen a case similar to that before. It went to court and everything but ultimately she wasn't found guilty of anything. The guys were around 19 even though they were still in highschool. They were even defending her and said everything was consensual. The most that happened I think is she lost her teaching license or something.

I knew about a case like this too… I think in this case the student was in elementary, the teacher, if I remember correctly went to jail, but when she got out they dated again but now he reached his age of consent and they couldn’t do anything and later they got married…. I think this is a textbook example of grooming.

In your case

She was an authority figure and therefore she clearly crossed the line . But I guess since the boy reached his age of consent they couldn’t do much apart from taking away her license.

...Disappointed in the world.

A high schooler wanting to date a twenty-something is one thing but why the f-ck would a 23 year old want to date a high schooler (except them being a creep)

It was more about the age of the high schooler and the age gap why many saw it less problematic. The high schooler in question was 19 and the guy 23 (18-22 international age) so just a 4 years age gap. With 18 you’re an adult in majority of the countries that’s why many people saw it as normal or ok.

Also different then here he was not an authority figure so there is no power imbalance.

It all comes down to how people judge such situations, some make a clear cut by Highschooler no matter the age and others judge considering the age and the age gap. It’s a moral issue.

But what everyone in that Thread on the other hand agreed on was that if she was younger than that or he older, it would have clearly been a problem.
