We hold back, say male teachers

Quote:
A love for children is the best reason for anyone, male or female, to go into teaching, educators say. But misinterpreted, that affection can be problematic -- and that's particularly true for men.

In an environment where any word, gesture or -- especially -- touch can be considered suspect in terms of being sexually charged, many male teachers say they must be extra careful in the way they interact with their students.
...
"As a male teacher, you try to make certain you are never alone in your classroom with a student, and if a student comes in you have the door open, and stand in the doorway. Sometimes you see that a kid really needs a hug. That's when I send them to see our female psychologist, or our social worker," he added.

It shouldn't be like this at all... thanks feminism.








Out of the gloom a voice spake unto me. 'Smile and be happy, Things could get worse."
So I smiled and was happy, and behold... Things did get worse.

My 13 year old son was a counselor in training at a week long camp for children ages 9-11 this summer. Even these kids that were counselors and couselors in training had to be given instruction regarding their interactions with the other children; things such as never entering a structure alone with one of the campers. It's sad that they can't just go and have fun. Even at 13 my son had to think about guarding his action and words to make sure nothing he said or did could be misconstrued as inappropriate.
