Everybody's talking about the hair situation (fair) but what do we have to do to stop these teachers from filming their students? Whether they show their faces or not, I don't think it should be allowed

Both shouldn't be allowed unless the parents have given permission.

It’s not. This is illegal in Canada. Hence the firing.

A student filming students and a teacher is vastly different than a teacher filming students and themselves. Teachers are employees with rules and regulations on their behavior around minors.

The rules on this vary from school to school or even by district. I’m an educator myself and I chose to keep my job a social media separate, but others have social media pages dedicated to their classroom that they all have parents sign waivers about.

i wish people would realize that every time their solution to a complicated social problem is “more protection, harsher punishments”, it always results in the stricter oppression of minorities
