[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If I were a student teacher and found out someone had contacted my supervisor about a pretty innocuous joke about coffee, I would think twice about my intended career, because parents are truly nuts these days.[/quote]

Truthfully, part of the lesson for her WILL be that even an innocuous seeming joke can go sideways with a certain kind of student and parent, which is unfortunately true and something all teachers do have to be mindful of. She probably thinks oh these kids are 17-18, I can joke around a little - but that is not necessarily the case. “Kid goes home and yaps to parent about some anodyne thing and now mom is emailing the principal” is a scenario many teachers will deal with at some point. [/quote]

Saying it ONCE was joking around though. [b]Begging a student on a daily basis [/b]to bring you a coffee is weird behavior and someone should talk to her about it before her social awkwardness gets her in even more trouble [/quote]

she's not doing that according to OP's story.[/quote]
