You wouldn't care about your son going or the suspension of the teacher?
I've never been in a hooters. Are they all topless?
If so, I'd say that the teacher showed such bad judgement that I would question her suitability for being a teacher even if I didn't find the act offensive, myself.
What a stupid thing to do.

no they usually look like:
Though usually a little more chunky, older, and a few c-section scars.
A high school teacher took her male choir to "Hooters" restaurant after performing Christmas carols. As a result she was suspended.
What do you think? Should this teacher have been suspended for this?
Here is the article: Paradise Valley High School teacher who took students to Hooters in Phoenix is put on leave
Personally, I think it is ridiculous. "Hooters" is not a strip club. It is a restaurant, not reallly different from Chili's or TGI Fridays and I doubt the teacher would have been suspended for that.
The reality is....the parents of ONE boy complained.
Which raises a bigger question....should the parents of one child dictate what is "appropriate" for everyone else?
i feel most sorry for the kid whose parents complained
and it's a bogus suspension, assuming there was no minimum age of entry which was not achieved by the students who went ... indicating it was open to the public
we've become a nation of the easily offended
Silly suspension. I've seen kids plenty of times at Hooters.
But those are probably kids who go there with their parents. Parents who don't go to Hooters probably don't go because they disapprove of the restaurant, and so disapprove of anyone else taking their kids there too.
For what reason? I cannot think of one legitimate reason, so please help me out. It sounds like the parents made an emotionally charged argument(OMG IT'S HOOOTERS!!!1!!!1!) and got the teacher in a tough spot.But those are probably kids who go there with their parents.

I think you should have more options on your poll. They could have counseled her and given a warning, plus sent out a general memo to the school staff that this sort of thing is not in keeping with school policies. I think the parent of the child had every right to complain.

It's a very valid complaint. Many people don't share the same liberal 'anything goes' values as some of the posters here. They disapprove of a restaurant that appeals to the baser and more exploitative values of society. They expect the schools to try to instill some of the nobler virtues into impressionable young people. They also might find it even more inappropriate for a female teacher to take young males into a titillating setting such as hooters.
