This probobaly isnt the right forum but one of my teachers at school made a pass at me, i'd been uncomfortable in the class since August my teachers young in his 20's like 27 maybe i believe but still it's creepy and i'm 18, the other day at school I was walking to my car because it was lunch and my teacher asked if I wanted to have lunch with him and I thought that was really out of place and I just kinda shook it off with a no thanks i have plans, when I got to his class he asked me to stay after (his class is the last period) and he told me that my work is just amazing (he's an english teacher) and he loves my writing and the way I view different things... when this started I thought it was just normal ya know and then he asked If i had plans after school because he "wanted to go over some english" and I said no I didnt have plans. We stayed in his classroom talking about a paper I wrote for like an hour after when practically all the teachers left I kept getting this uneasy feeling and I said I had to go and then when i was leaving I grabbed my purse and he was like wait I have to be honest with you and he was like you're so beautiful and smart and im attracted to you then he kissed me and I went home and told my mom and she called the school and it was like they didnt even care they were like well she is 18, and then they want to have a parent teacher conference but i dont know if im comfortable with that I just want to be switched out of his class ↓

Wow Amanda that's horrible. I'm so sorry you had to go through that. I know it will be difficult but i think it's important that you have a parent teacher meeting ↑

I think hes a creep usually people can feel when people are uncomfrotable and thats the ones they go after. i think it took a lot of guts to tell your mom. And it deffinetly needs to be addressed i think you shouldnt have to be there it should be him your mom and superintendent he should be fired i thought it was illegal. good luck ↑

Reading this makes me think I am reliving my experience with my English teacher when I was in high school, the guy was a total pig and was known to make girls feel really uncomfortable in his class, but he also was a lot older so it made it more gross cause he was like 50 something, but anyway he always had to put his hands on girls backs when he was walking around the room teaching, and just so happened that one day he stopped behind my desk and started squeezing my shoulder well I flipped out in front of everyone, I figured if he had the balls to do what he was doing in front of people then I should embarrass him in front of everyone too, well after that he never tried anything like that again with me , but I am hoping that he still doesn't put his hands on his students, I graduated like 5 years ago so I don't even know if he is still teaching or not, hopefully he isn't. ↑

you should go and complain to the school bord and go the news papers about it if your not to shy about this stiuation and you really want to be punished for this like he should be. well thats all that i can say, i hope things get better. take care. ↑

It was the right move telling your mom. As for the school...you need to go higher up the chain of command to the school board office...the superintendent. I guarantee it won't be blown off...especially if you use the word "press or newspaper". Your mother should demand you are moved out of his class not just request it. Good Luck. ↑
