writes: Your daughter is a great student! She is tall, beautiful with the sweetest personality." those were the words coming from her history teacher at parent teachers conference. My daughter is a freshman in highschool and all the things he said are true. The teacher is male obviously and quite handsome ill admit hes very young and looks about early 20s. And, whenever my daughter talks sbout him, she gets all nervous and shaky.Now, its the end of the year and a few months ago my daughter randomly switched out of his class. I asked her why and she said it was because the material was too hard. But, she was getting a perfect A! After that, she was getting more sad u know like how u feel after a breakup?Should i be worried? Im a single parent and i had my daughter at such a young age and i havent even gone through life myself! Was she seeing this man? I just cant believe it took me this long to figure it all out. But...maybe i dont have it all figured out. Anyways, please help! Thanks

Almost certainly she was not! There is no evidence of that! She probably does have a crush on him and maybe he thinks she's pretty, too. However, your accusation is pretty major and there is scant evidence to back it up. Do you have anything else?

Make a specfic friendly but firm meeting time to visit one of her closest friends and be brief but say you are concerned - make it clear that you will be chatting with your daughter but need to find out a few facts first. Then I would make a visit to the teacher and be polite but direct. Ask him why he feels that your daughter switched classes. Try and get to know him.
By both investigating and being in front of this teacher you have sent him a clear warning sign about boundaries in the least and would also have more information to proceed further in helping your daughter.
