1) Turn off the TV (I cut Glee off my schedule with the pilot and predicted that my daughter -- a music teacher -- would have nothing but trouble as long as it was on the air. I was right.)

2) Home school.

It's too bad that the crazies have taken 2 of the most memorable HS experiences -- choir and prom -- and turned them into major negatives. I was first aware of the prom business when my kids were that age. NONE of them went to the prom, except my oldest. And she had to go because she was chosen by her classmates to sing. As I said above, we were there too, so nothing untoward happened to her. My others wanted nothing to do with prom. This was in the late '70s and early '80s in TX. Sad.

If she truly didn’t do anything wrong, she should get her job back. That being said, it was extremely poor judgement for an adult teacher to go with a student to the prom and slow dance with him. In today’s day and age, we read about teacher X involved with student Y so much that it makes parents heads spin. The prom is for the students and not the adults (the adults serve as chaperones). Unlike when I was in high school, there are a lot of students who now go just with their friends (and no dates).

GLEE is a show from the deepest pits of Hell.
