Ok so i entered middle school terrified last year and this teacher helped me all through middle school. She was only like 27. And the way we talked to each other its like we could relate to each other on about anything. Until she left the school! But she called me and still said she cared a lot about me so just wondering if u could help me with that!!!!

No. It's called jail bait especially if they are of opposite sexes. No matter how innocent it is or appears to be, it's not worth that 'grown-ups' integrity to get so wrapped up in a child's life as such. There are services and programs or groups for such children. For an adult to go out of his/her way to contact you and say she cared is not proper.

From what I understand it seems as if you are wondering if the teacher's intentions are honorable and you do not have to protect you "virtue". Well I think it is possible to have a relationship with a grown up but if you are worried about it then it means something that teacher did spook you, so stay away from the said teacher if you are still worried. Well in the final analysis you have to make the decision base on the relationship you have had with the teacher. Good luck. The world is full of beauty, just be careful.

I do not see anything wrong with talking. However, if the talking leads to inappropriate activities, that is wrong. If your teacher calls to see how you are, there is nothing wrong with that. The majority of teachers are concerned about students and their futures. It is the minority that make them look bad.
Additionally, if a teacher says they care about you -- unless they have done something to give you the impression that they are implying something else, they are most likely letting you know that they are concerned and care very much about you and your progress -- especially if you have had your share of difficulties in home life or school life. Reaching out to someone should not be mistaken as a bad thing unless there is something else to base it on.
I understand it can be difficult to interpret someone's intentions if you come from a family that is very dysfunctional where everyone has problems and hugs and positive comments are not the norm. Take care.

It's kind of a shame that we have to be suspicious of so many people, even our teachers. Your old enough to understand the difference between a positive influence and a negative one. This teacher sounds like a positive influence. As long as there are no secrets from your parents, you should be safe. I agree with the other responder that including your mom in your friendship is a good idea.

Well it seems unusual but thats not to say that you havent managed to find a genuinely nice person. If you are a fairly mature teen and you both bonded it should be fine.
Of course, I would be sure to let your parents know that you are still in contact with your old teacher so they can monitor the friendship (that sounds bad BUT its wiser to play it safe). Perhaps you could invite your old teacher out to a cafe for coffee with your mum....i'm sure the old teacher would totally understand.

It is NEVER appropriate for a teacher and a student to be "friends" in or outside of school, whether she is still your teacher or not! This "teacher" has stepped WAY out of bounds by contacting you at home. You should let your parents or another trusted adult in on this and have her reported for improper conduct. If she is contacting you, what else is she doing?

Grown ups can be friends with kids but that is where it ends.Please don't go there,if you watch the news and Dr.Phil,you will see what is happening to young boys and older teachers.It's not right and nothing will come of it because it's just a Crush for you and for her,it is nothing but another notch in her belt for getting a young boy to be with.She should back off and you should grow up resposibly.Didn't your parents teach ya.

Of course it is =) I've had many close relationships with about 5 teachers (girls). They are people just like us and its easy to strike up a conversation after school and then become friends and you feel like you can talk to them about anything. Its my Senior year in highschool and I have 3 teachers that I can talk to about anything and we talk about our problems. In middle school, like you, I had a teacher(math/homeroom) of which I became close with and when I grauduated 8th grade she then quit her job and we've been in contact and have met for lunch since then!

Of course you can be!
I'm friends with lots of my teachers. Last year my 7th grade LA teacher was around 25 maybe? She was everyone's friend! And my 7th grade History teacher was crazy and was friendly to everyone and emailed us all when she left fro South Dakota.
So yeah of course you can be friend's with your teachers.
