To be annoyed that my friend ( a teacher) may be disciplined for telling parents one of her pupils took a pregnancy test?

[NiceTry]

The girl had confided in her and the test was arranged, via school nurse but my colleague decided that the girl's parents should be informed and may now face disciplinary procedures because the girl had not consented to this (the test was negative by the way). Obviously the girl (and parents) are very upset. But did she do the right thing?

How very rude of the police to slag off social services. And how very unprofessional. Does your town have a monopoly on shit public services starting with teachers and working all the way along to the police.

Perlease.... gimmie a break.

NiceTry i think your pants are on fire.all these new facts & corroborating evidence you speak off.

"Nab, my colleague told me about what had happened because I am a union representative at work"

so how come she didn't tell you the whole story at the time? Is it only that they have found out since that she has been sleeping with an adult drug user?

In which case I would suggest this doesn't change that she was wrong to tell the parents.

NT your story is so woolly you could put it in a field and call it dolly

As she told her mother before all thhis became apparent. So she wasn't telling the mother BECAUSE she knew he was a heroin user, or an older man. I put it to you that this new information has no bearing on the original case..

I am very that a 14 year old having unprotected sex with an adult heroin addict was not considered a CP issue by the appointed person.

And I have to say again, social services.

Well said, Scottishmummy!

NT, you are clearly inventing new 'facts' to try to bolster your case.

aheem so says NiceTry.plays the oh and another thing ace card - bitty suspicious

FallenMadonna... the teacher didn't tell her union rep (Nicetry) about the heroin user because (I assume) she didn't know that at the time she chose to break this girls confidence. It seems to have only come to light today. I am assuming this because if I knew that this was a reason for my action I sure as hell would have mentioned it to my union rep before now, if only as some kind of defence.

Easier to disbelieve than admit you may be wrong and no Beanie, my colleague knew her boyfriend was over 18,as the girl told her, and had heard rumours he was taking drugs (she used to teach him also)and I do not teach in a town it is an inner-city school.To be fair to the police they did not really slag off social services his words were 'the girl needs her mother not a bloody social worker'.

Noone is wrong. why did she not tell you , her union rep, all the facts?

Are you making this up as you go along, NiceTry?

NT yes frankly easier to disbelieve.you are taking more twists than lewis hamilton and more bumps than beyonce in this tawdry tale

at the policeman.

And I don't think my first response was wrong. Social services. Not parents. And you say she says that too...

Nicetry - are you still posting??

wot scottishmummy said!

this has been rumbling on since thursday night!

we all still think the friend was wrong, that i s not going to change, you are not going to change... enough !!
