It might be silly, but I love this picture.every time I see it.

I really want to know the background on it. Where and when was it? Who was playing? Did she intentionally kick him? Did she know him? Does she still? Was the picture a happy accident or did they know it was coming?

The world needs to know the answers to these pressing questions.

Sounds like a fun way to interact with the kids. They must love you coming to the games.

Hey sorry, I really wasn’t looking for a long argument here, just wanted to clarify my earlier comment.

But yes, we have different viewpoints. I have kids. I would feel responsible for the window because it’s my kid and that’s reasonable and what society expects. If my kid wanted to talk to their teacher about something in private I’m ok with that.

They obviously won’t share literally everything, but if my kids have a problem trusting me then I’m failing as a parent.

Perhaps therapist was the wrong word. Many schools have health officers who act as emotional support staff that work with students.

I believe all educators have a duty to the well-being of the student ovet the parents. Students are people too, not a thing that parents own until they turn 18. They should be afforded confidentiality too.

Parents should be aware of what is going on in their kids’ lives.

This means being a parent and actively being involved in their life. It does not mean abusing the trust that kids give to teachers, councilors, therapists and other adults they might confide in.
