PALAISEAU, France — A schoolteacher whose body, face and tongue are covered in tattoos and who has had the whites of his eyes surgically turned black said he was prevented from teaching at a French kindergarten after a parent complained he scared their child.
But the teacher, Sylvain Helaine, 35, still teaches children from the age of six up, and said that, after an initial shock when they see him for the first time, his pupils see past his appearance.
“All of my students and their parents were always cool with me because basically they knew me,” said Helaine, who estimated he has spent around 460 hours under the tattooists’ needle.
“It’s only when people see me from far away that they can assume the worst.”
He said last year he was teaching kindergarten at the Docteur Morere Elementary School in Palaiseau, a suburb of Paris, when the parents of a three-year-old child complained to educational authorities. They said their son, who was not taught by Helaine, had nightmares after seeing him.

Don’t know if they can do the eyes.
I have one tattoo.

Can’t be seen with a short sleeve shirt on.
Right shoulder into arm.
I actually never think about it unless something reminds me...like this article :)
Has special meaning that can’t be topped so I will never get another one
I am not seeing a problem with this.
If wants to start Gothic Daycare for people who like freaks, that’s fine, but his employer has the right to toss him out.
If ever there was a person who fit the definition of “Colored” it’s this guy. I can’t believe they would allow discrimination against him. /sarc
He scares the heck out of me as well!
That's right: in Leviticus 19:28.
And one verse earlier:
You must not cut off the hair at the sides of your head or clip off the edges of your beard.

He really messed up! He should have claimed that he was a female [lizard] . . .
My wife’s nephew is having his extensive HARRY POTTER tattoos removed. Chest, back, arms. His brother is covered in some super hero cartoon tats. Hilarious!
And I’m a Biker. So it’s not just the tats.
Holy crap!
The facial expressions almost say as much as all the other ‘artwork’.
“Evil inside”
Exactly- and the reason tattoos were forbidden back then was because pagan religions required tattoos honoring the false gods they served- God did not want His people marrying pagans, and getting the tattoos that they got honoring vile false gods- tattoos today, for the most part are not for such purposes-
You forgot, painful.
I know which one I prefer....rotflmaopimp
As well it should have.
The guy has no business anywhere near kids.
Birds don’t mutilate themselves. Don’t insult the birds.
Parents must hate their kids to let that person close to them.
Is there anyone who doesn’t believe these people that demolish their bodies in this way have very significant psychological issues and problems?
