[quote=Anonymous]You people are awful. Criticizing a male teacher for reading a board about children? Worse-- calling him "creepy" for taking an interest in the parents' POV? It's professional research. I wish my kid's teacher were more clued-in to parents' concerns! And I applaud the teacher for his hard work in a field where male role models are severely underrepresented. Have you ever seen how kids react to the men in their schools? Gym teachers, administrators, etc? Kids, especially ones with no men at home, really value them. My husband used to teach elementary school (pre kids, the horror!) in a very low SES neighborhood. His kids adored him, and got something from him (a firm handshake, a different kind of discipline, a male perspective on their problems) they weren't getting anywhere else. We need to be encouraging men to get in to teaching, not vilifying them based on some very rare (despite OP's inflammatory departure point) sick individuals. [/quote]
