Is it bad when teachers flirt with students?

[Anonymous]

In high school or younger (not college.) I think it's weird.

well, I can't say that it's totally okay because teachers are much older than their students so flirting with their students makes them look like pedophiles. Also, in almost every country the teachers much be professional and mustn't be involved in any kind of sexual/romantic relationships with their students. That's what the law says, but there are cases where a student and a teacher really fall in love, and as we know, any kind of love is nothing else but LOVE, so for me, it's totally okay as long as no one is forced to do something they don't wanna do.

its super inappropriate, but not uncommon. they are finally starting to crack down on those teachers doing that, thank goodness...

Yes. Of course it's wrong! It's also illegal. For good reason.

While it may not be too bad, it's not ethical, especially from a professional. Even in low wage jobs, I don't think it's right for managers to flirt with their employees.

I saw this often with some male teachers at the high schools I went to. I could TELL they would flirt with high school girls. Keep in mind, these same teachers were married too.

Even if the students are the legal age of consent, it's unprofessional on the job. I'm a teacher and I will surely not be flirting with any of my high school students.

Oh my god i would love it if my teacher starts flirting with me! I remember i had a crush on my teacher at 17. She liked me and always used to come sit near me and have small talks together. That used to turn me super on <3 <3
I always had a feeling she does it on purpose. Woman definitely knew liked her X. X

Men who do that should be prosecuted. Female teachers I don't think should be prosecuted unless they flirt with a girl or a boy under puberty. I think female teachers should be fired though but it is wrong more as a sex in the workplace thing than a rape thing when they do it with a teenage boy.

Biased much?
Male gets jail, while female gets sent home for the same crime.
Be reasonable.
I wouldn't want neither doing neither.

Why the sexist double standard? Because the male teacher has a penis, he should get in more trouble?

[Jackblue]

@ Prof_Don No because a boy is capable of handling sex (at least with a female) when he reaches puberty, girls need more time to grow than that.

mh, well, I noticed that many female teachers treated me different from the rest. They liked me, I I could tell.

But I'd often get in trouble with the male teachers. They disliked me often

[TeaHaychSea]

Yes because they are minors. In college it would be weird too because professors should act professional not flirting with students

It's completely inappropriate and an abuse of power.

The society doesn't accept it, its not right for a teacher,
He is a role model for the society.

I think it's more playful teasing, not flat out flirting

[LightsOff]

Obviously. Very unprofessional.

[aegis_penguin]

I think it's unprofessional and creepy.

[cinderelli]

[Prof_Don]
