Every planet has its own weird customs. About a year before we met, I spent six weeks on a moon where the principal form of recreation was juggling geese. My hand to God. Baby geese. Goslings. They were juggled.

Trust my rage

How much longer is she her teacher? If she's just teaching 9-5 and not heavily involved in the girl's life, I think I'd be okay with not knowing. I think teachers are often in a hard position in that they are held to such a high standard. Which is good, because they have great influence, but I think I'd just leave it.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I've decided to smite.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I like the way Aims thinks.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Wait, does Trudy have a cat?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

“Not dead yet!”

Vortex, I think if she's only her teacher for a couple more weeks, then let sleeping dogs lie. So far as her behavior has been appropriate for the professional setting, then I think it's okay.

Besides, I think a lot of us have That Person in our lives who once made us act really crazy/stupid and completely unlike our normal selves.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

My brother is indeed fortunate in that he is his own That Person.

Compassionately intolerant

Question is - do I tell them what I know? I'm thinking that I should keep my mouth shut, but as a parent, would you want to know what I know?

I'm with you on the not sharing, in this particular case. Unless what you know leads you to believe the woman is a bad teacher or could somehow bring harm to your niece, it doesn't seem relevant. If the parents decide to be friends with her for some reason, a word of caution might be wise, but other than that, no need.
