[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My advice would be to do your job and not talk about your personal life. In fact, that's the advice for ALL teachers. I'm not sure why my kid's gay language teacher insists on saying things like, "That was a gay thing to say." Sexuality has no place in the classroom because it is irrelevant to the task at hand. Doubtful you will be accused of grooming anyone if you keep your personal life private. Again, that goes for all teachers, not just gay ones.[/quote]

So, no teachers should ever mention their partners/spouses?[/quote]

The only time I ever knew about a teachers spouse in school was if they worked in the same school, then you knew they were married. That’s where the information ended. Teachers didn’t talk about anything personal ever. It should have stayed that way and we wouldn’t be in this predicament. They also didn’t discuss gender, sexuality, religion, skin color, income, or current events unless it was a class specifically designed for that like a class on current events or finance. Teachers didn’t discuss anything personal regarding the students with the students such as puberty, birth control, abortion, who was dating whom or anything else kids go through. They listened and alerted the guidance counselor to anything suspect but never talked to students about it or talked to each other in front of students. Meetings were rarely handled by the teacher unless it was a note home, you were dealt with by the principal or guidance counselor. This is called professionalism and needs to be there for various reasons. [/quote]
