There are many Missouri teachers who are annoyed with the restrictions put on their Facebook communication with students. Rightfully so. This is a pitiful example of using legal restrictions to replace common sense. It isn't going to slow down communication with those it is intended to block. Teachers and students who decide to have inappropriate relationships will still communicate privately.
What they have done is blocked a mentoring path for kids and started a slippery slope towards restricting communication that has become common, such as texting and email. Several opponents are concerned about how vague the language is, and the ways it can be expanded and exploited. I'm disgusted.
