The following questions are taken from page 408 of the textbook, Those Who Can, Teach , by Kevin Ryan and James M. Cooper. Teachers are expected to be people of good character and role models to students. In past years, teachers were held to a higher degree of moral standards than most people. In a high profile job such as teaching, with such a great degree of exposure to children, this is really understandable.
Children tend to look to teachers as an example of appropriate behavior.
As a parent, I expect a teacher to behave in a manner that sets a good example for my child. As a teacher, it might appear as if you are constantly being judged. And maybe you are. Certainly within the confines of my personal life as long as I am not involved in any illegal or unethical activities. If I am not at a school function and I am not acting as a representative of the school, I feel my time and my business are my own.
