A man covered his face with tattoos and turned his eyes black. He says it cost him his kindergarten teaching job

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.(snip)

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.

A couple of months later the school authorities informed him he would no longer teach kindergarten children, he said. "I think the decision they took was quite sad," said Helaine.

A spokesman for the local education authority said an agreement was reached with Helaine to move him away from teaching kindergarten. Pupils under six "could be frightened by his appearance", the spokesman said. Despite the setbacks, Helaine said he would stick with his chosen career. "I'm a primary school teacher ... I love my job."(snip)

He said he hoped to show his pupils that they should accept people who are different from the norm. "Maybe when they are adults they will be less racist and less homophobic and more open-minded," he said.

This idiot deserves a swift kick in the ass.

When he complains, as he will, he should be swiftly kicked again.

What a moron. “What is wrong with people, judging me on my appearance?”

We don’t judge people for being ugly, being a certain sex, being a certain race, or even being overweight...

But when you make yourself into an idiot of the highest order by deliberately defacing the body God gave you, yes we will judge you on that.

What a flaming dumb ass.

Beyond the freakish disfiguration of his body, there's something basically mental about this guy....and I wouldn't allow any young children of mine to be even near him, let alone being taught by him.

Loser. What’s next? Replacing every bone in the body with aluminum? The flowers on his forehead is a signal that he is a loser.

you cannot expect normal people to tolerate negative extreme things and then complain when they express a natural reaction to negative extreme things

the kind of crap is gaslighting normal people

perhaps we just lock up all people who pull this crap and let them thunderdome it out between themselves
