Im not sure how long the relationship will last cause most teen girls are ditzy.
She may be ditzy, I'll give you that. But I doubt he is an intellectual giant.

In this case intellect most likely has very little to do with his decisions.

Everything here is legal, no one bats an eye when these rich guys go and marry young 18 year olds and it shouldn't be any different for an ex-teacher. All people are equal whether you're rich or not, so stop throwing double standards out there. I think it is messed up for anyone to do this, but it is legal.

The creepiest part is that his own daughter is only a year younger than his new lay.

I agree & to quit his teaching job was stupid. He may though teach elsewhere or out of state. He didnt commit a crime so he should be ok (i guess).

Dont know if we just hear about it more or teachers are more brazen. 17 yo was recently told how she could improve her grades. He is the math and shop teacher and is very respected. Her on the other hand is not so well adjusted. No one really believes her, but rumors have been circulating that this is not the first time. Hope they bust him.

This guy's actions speak dishonorably for themselves.

However, judging all relationships with significant age differential is a bit over the top. I have been married 14 years to a woman 18 years younger than me. My present wife was 30 when we met (following the passing of my first wife after a 30 year marriage) which is a lot different than being a teenager, true. We met through discussion on a website focused on Deaf experience and culture -- and exchanged more and more emails over months, without knowing each others' ages for a long time. We simply found each other fun and interesting. My wife is a very well educated and highly talented individual with a lot of personal strengths. When our age difference was revealed, at a point in which our communications had begun to develop more and more personal interest, and the topic of meeting up from halfway across the country arose, I laughed and withdrew, citing my disinclination to be considered a pedophile. My [now] wife would have none of that joke -- and she pursued me even as I ceased further communications. Eventually I agreed, and my four kids accompanied me nearly a thousand miles to go camping with this lady in Montana (who also drove a thousand miles from the east). The rest is history.

It happens. My oldest daughter is my wife's age exactly. They are friends.

Congratulations - it sounds like you have a great & successful 2nd marriage.
