This is disturbing.


How so? I monitor my son’s phone so I see all of the communication and it’s about practice and games.


Snaps disappear! You aren’t very social media educated I see. Plus, why would an adult need this much direct contact with a minor in middle school?

I don't have a student athlete, so I don't know what the accepted practice is.


Parents are to be communicated with not the student athlete.

Snaps disappear when they are viewed, so you won’t see it.

My husband is a HS teacher and would never ever communicate directly in a digital way. Ick.

Absolutely not appropriate. Report this. Coaches should not do this either.

No. My son has told me that this is not allowed at his public school.

Never appropriate for a teacher or coach to have a minor students number or the other way around.

And does this answer change if he's a coach and they are on his team? What if they are not on his team?
