    How long until they're not teaching your child anymore?

    I must have been unfortunate, all the male teachers ive had to meet over the many, many years my kids have been in school and they were all bost up, mingers, facially challenged (delete as appropriate).

  • Unfortunately it may be another year my child is in their class (reception but they don't normally teach reception).

    The emotional fallout from this is enough reason for a teacher to be wary. If it all went wrong there could be real professional issues also.

    As a teacher in secondary school you know you're getting old when the parents are of an age where one would want to date them!

    I personally don't see the big deal..go for it if you want to go for it. Your both adults, both single...

    Cliche as hell but life really is too short..
  • I remember another thread where the OP was referring to them as 'they'.

    Why the assumption that the OP is female and the teacher male?
    Please do not quote spam as this enables it to 'live on' once the spam post is removed. ;)

    If you quote me, don't forget the capital 'M'

    Why the assumption the whole thing is real too? I reckon it's all made up.

    Yeah it must be, or it's pathetic anyway.

    I fancy quite badly a teacher in my DD's school, IF I was single, I still wouldn't take it a step further, even though she's been nice to me, really nice, within limits, IYKWIM. :D

    Teachers have a built in safety zone, they will be nice to all and sundry, but it ends there, if one went further than that, then they must have a built in destruction switch, because that's as long as they would last.

    Makes no sense, OP has a vocab of The Sun readership and only writes headlines. Sorry, but nothing to see here but a troll. :)

    This may be a troll but for anyone reading this considering a relationship with your child's teacher, my advice would be, DON'T. The potential for disaster is huge compared with the chance of it all working happily ever after. It's likely that the teachers 'pleasantries' have been misconstrued in which case you could end up making a complete fool of yourself. If the teacher has been (stupidly IMO) sending out signals then keep away as it could all end in tears. The teacher would be taking a huge, professional risk. If the relationship turns sour then the 'spurned lover' could turn nasty and make very damaging accusations.

    I'd advise OP to enjoy the good feeling of being flattered and move on. Find a real relationship. This is a fantasy.
  • My ex husband married my son's year 3 teacher. He met her for the first time at a parents evening (with me) just after we seperated. She told us our son was acting a bit weird and we told her it might be because we were divorcing. 6 months later they were dating and a year or so later they were married. So my son's teacher is now his step mum. So it does happen!
