I have two teachers who I am very close with (the other is female)-- babysit their kids, get lunch on weekends, they've come to my house for dinner-- my parents are aware of it, my classmates are aware of it and the school is mildly aware of it. Even so, I am one Dani from California who goes to a private shool and has abnormally close student-teacher relationships. If someone wants to report it, have fun trying-- I think that is outrageously nosy and ridiculous, and I will be deleting some friends if anyone else considers this a legitimate concern.

I consider myself so, so lucky to be able to have these relationships. Sorry it weirds you out.
I also have very close relationships with some of my teachers in high school. I remember going to a teachers class every day senior year when I thought I was having mental breakdown and she would just talk to me and listen and hug me. She's now a friend on fb, we text, I visit her often. I also had another teacher who I considered mom. This also happened senior year. She helped me with college stuff. Also a great mentor. So I understand Dani! I think it's great
