Comment on She Was Supplementing Her Income

  She was teaching high school. Those kids would get access to her videos one way or another. Do you honestly feel like that’s a healthy situation for anyone involved? Like, get real. I understand your perspective, and in almost every other profession it would not be a problem, but in real life, you don’t put kids in a situation like that, it’s not okay.

      I’m not advocating enforcing any “conservative” ideals. I’m not sure where you all lost sight of the fact we’re talking about children, here. They are not in a place in life where they can make healthy distinctions about sex like you and I can. They should be focused on other kids their own age. If you introduce a sexual angle into the power dynamic of a teacher/student relationship, how on Earth is that going to improve the child’s life in any way? The kids’ lives are what we should be focused on, here, right?

      Anyways, you can get mad all you want at my, frankly, appropriate and reasonable viewpoint here. The teacher herself stated she knows she cannot do both at once. Like, she knows that. She’s not asking for you or anyone else to come gallivanting to her defense because, as a teacher, she understands it’s not appropriate ('cause it’s not).

        Best thing we can do to help the children is to pay teachers substantially more. Until then, things like this will keep happening.

        In some ways, I do think you are right.

        If everyone saw the president doing porn I imagine that would impact how people engaged with him politically.

        That being said, I do feel like you are treating the symptom and not the source.

        Teachers are not using work like porn for freedom of expression, they are doing it to put a roof over their heads. It's meant to supplement income that is not part of their primary source: Teaching.

        So long as we pay teachers a poverty level, I don't think we can debate the morality of survival. Or punish them for the inaction of politicians.
