unless they brought pictures or slide shows, they kept it away from the children. also, going once is not frequenting. It's going once. so what the children know is that their teachers went one time to this show. unless you can show me evidence of the teachers telling their students lurid details, i don't see the harm.

So, if I tell students, or respond affirmatively if asked by a student, that, yes, I enjoyed my fun time at Six Flags or @ some professional sporting event, of course, that would ne'er want that student to attend that same place of amusement & entertainment, now would it?

What? Do you always disconnect like this? Or don't you realize that some students emulate their beloved teachers re: their behavior both inside and outside the classroom?

Can children not be told that there are some things appropriate for adults and not for children? That they will have to decide on their own when they are adults if they want to do those things or not? Or can they never be trusted to make judgements for themselves, or to see the distinction between adults and children, so we must always keep things hidden from them? Sounds like a bad way to raise a person capable of making their own determinations of right and wrong.

Are you assuming that any teacher would discuss Chippendales with her students?

A teacher who did discuss Chippendales in class should be fired. That is inappropriate. Amazing that such a flawed human being, like myself, could make that sort of judgement?
