* * I've worked in Education for 7 years, and have seen twenty-something year old teachers pressured out of their job for living like a twenty-something year old.
* teachers having to live their entire public lives in a bubble of 'respectability' as defined by the loudest complaining parent. (relative to the spine of your administrators - my former employers were spineless).
* teachers have to hide their lives because parents believe adults drinking is 'inappropriate'.
* * I have a daughter who's school-aged and I don't really want to
see pix of her teacher getting sloshed on Facebook, nor do I want to question or worry that she's coming to school on Monday morning w/ a hang-over or wondering if she hits the bottle too hard and too often to the point it's affecting her job.
* * Take care with your posts, consider whether something you write could be misinterpreted
* Take care with who you friend
* Teachers and practicing psychologists are obliged to adhere to a regulation that states they shall not engage in activities that may discredit their profession, whilst at work or not
* What about you?
