Any educators with BPD?

Do you ever struggle with intrusive thoughts? Like obsessive intrusive thoughts about bad things? I get a bit concerned about my friend because she has BPD and I’m afraid she might be having some predatory behaviors. I don’t wanna blame it on BPD but I just can’t understand how she thinks her behavior is okay. Even if she is waiting until he turns 18.

Ohio online Student/Teacher Relationships

When I spoke up about the female teachers that were grooming the kids in Ohio everyone wanted to act like these things aren’t happening. Well they are. Quite literally following the kids online- grooming them for three years plus, and then only ever engaging in “sexual” conduct after they turn 18 just to be able to say “I’m not a pedophile.”

In short- I met an educator who turned out to be a pedo and got away with it, during all of this, because she knew it was me who reported her, she made fun of the fact that I wasn’t a “real boy” because I didn’t have the “parts” or whatever.. and I mean altogether it’s fucked me up and it’s changed the way I view the world but that part especially I guess idk it triggered something for me and so not only do I want to kms because she got away with it but also now because.. I’m in fact not who I want to be.

Her words shouldn’t hold so much weight but for some reason it did. I don’t wanna live in a world like this in a body like mine.

Does this seem a little groomy to you?

I work at an intermediate. Ages 11-12. Generally a tough school. Gang kids, exposure to abuse, y'know - just a little less stability than the ideal.

There's a non-class teacher at the school that follows kids social media (tiktok, facebook insta, and allegedly even snapchat) invites them into her space at lunch time (sometimes there's only one student), has very clear favourites (writes notes hearts on them or let's them share her cup), hugs students, but undermines the class teachers by positioning them as the enemy, and is generally just not interested in building genuine relationships with colleagues. So I almost never see her hug adults.

She's got a lot of power in the school because she is, admittedly, the bombdotcom at administrative organisation - she's genuinely valuable there. She has a lot of sway with the DPs and Principal.

Anybody who mentions the subtle weirdness of the above is accused of attacking her by the leadership in the school. There's not much I can do at this stage.

I just teach my students that if you go to any teachers class (even mine) take a friend with you. Don't be alone with teachers.

I'm not sure if I'm reading into it... but that's weird, right?
