Unless, of course, said teacher was also a pedophile, right?

But I guess being a pedo would qualify as "absolutely nuts".

maybe he's her teacher?

I'm a teacher...

Something like that would appear very inappropriate for a teacher.
If another teacher in my district was doing this, I'd advise them to put a stop to it.
<that was easy.>

well sounds like good way to make sure your students don't get in trouble or in bad influence... just check out all their buddies on facebook.

Almost any administrator will find it inappropriate. Many parents will find it inappropriate. After just 1 complaint these days, schools are obligated to follow up with an investigation. *I'M* not going to be the person to have a complaint filed against me. My door is always open. Students are welcome to stop in any time for help with school work, or if they have any other concerns. I've stayed late - past 6pm, so that some students who had sports practices could still come in for extra help before a test. I'm working on a chat room just for the students at our school (a math/science chat room). Two of my classes have on their course outline that they can call me at home before 10pm if they have difficulty with some concept. I have absolutely no issues with contact with students outside of school (although I do my best to avoid situations where someone could falsely accuse me of something - the only time I ever went against my best judgement was giving a female student a ride home from a dinner 25 miles away - her mother's car broke down on the way to pick her up and it looked like she'd be stuck there for a couple hours, and I'd be stuck there for a couple hours too since she was under my supervision.) But, there's no way in hell I'm going to create an account on facebook or myspace and add students. Heck, some of the administrators and local law enforcement find it very inappropriate that students are even allowed on those two sites in the first place. There are some schools (private schools) that forbid their students to have accounts on myspace. Parents are being told that there are bazillions of sexual predators online and they need to watch everything their kids are doing. You're absolutely nuts if you think that in that type of a climate, a teacher would get an account and start adding students.

HOLY BLOCK PARAGRAPH BATMAN!

If this about some girl 12 or under, yeah. A pedophile would not have much interest in a 16-Year-Old.

He seems legit, accept the friend request, he might've won the last big lottery and is using facebook to share his wealth. :D
