[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This has nothing to do with BTSN and everything to do with what goes on in the classroom. I have no idea how you got from “the students are being supportive” to “the teacher is leaning on the students for support” (that makes you sound totally nuts), but if the teacher is regularly breaking down in class, making the kids comfort her, etc., you can talk with administration. Otherwise, absolutely not. I think the former is unlikely and you are probably just weird and nuts though. [/quote]
Same here.  If the teacher is regularly crying in class and making the kids comfort her, you are going to hear about it.  And that would be a problem.  But nothing you said indicates that is happening.  I think you're upset that someone talked about something sad and it made you uncomfortable and you are projecting that discomfort onto the kids (who are probably less bothered by it than you are) because "Won't someone think of the CHILDREN?" feels morally better than "I am uncomfortable with death and loss and grief."
