Recently, a video of "Teacher charging Wuliangye and high-end cosmetics" has attracted attention. The video shows that a parent called the teacher and said that he had left the Teacher's Day gift at the fruit shop at the entrance of the community and asked the teacher to pick it up. The teacher responded, "I'm sorry for being so polite." The parent replied, "It's okay." Another video showed a man getting two bags of gifts and putting them into a private car. On the 12th, a staff member of Hefei No. 6 Middle School where the teacher involved was located told Nandu reporters that the teacher’s acceptance of gifts was true.

This matter has caused controversy on the Internet. If the gift is sent to the community where the teacher is located, let the teacher pick it up himself, and then He also took a video of the other person receiving the gift and posted it. This behavior seemed unusual and made people wonder why he did this. At present, whether this matter is a "set up" by parents is still being verified, and the cause and effect are not clear. No matter what is fishy or what is behind the scenes, if you give a gift to a teacher and then take a photo of it and expose it, it will only disqualify both the recipient and the gift-giver and make them look embarrassed.

It has been confirmed that the teacher received the gift. Regardless of whether the parents "set up a trap" or not, the teacher's acceptance of gifts is already a "defeat", because relevant regulations prohibit teachers from accepting gifts. Once a parent accepts a gift, it is a violation, and it will be true and given to others. This is also one of the controversial points in this matter. According to netizens, if the teacher insists on not accepting gifts, even if the parents have the motivation to set up a trap, the trap will be broken. If you don't get involved, this setup will not succeed. After being exposed, the teacher probably regretted it. If I had known this was the case, I wouldn't have accepted the gift at all. It's a pity that now it's too late to regret.

As early as 2014, the Ministry of Education issued a notice on the "Regulations on Strictly Prohibiting Teachers from Accepting Gifts from Students and Parents in Violations", which mentioned that it is strictly prohibited to accept gifts in any way from students and parents. Ask for or accept gifts, securities, payment vouchers and other property from students and parents. In 2018, the Ministry of Education issued the "Ten Codes of Professional Conduct for Primary and Secondary School Teachers in the New Era", which once again mentioned: adhere to integrity and self-discipline. Be strict with self-discipline and teach with integrity; you are not allowed to ask for or accept property from students and parents or participate in banquets, travel, entertainment and leisure activities paid for by students and parents.

Standardizing teachers’ professional behavior is to protect the legitimate rights and interests of teachers and students. If teachers accept gifts, they may take care of individual students, undermine fair teaching rules, and corrupt the morale. In terms of teacher ethics, teachers are not allowed to accept gifts. Accepting gifts is a violation of professional ethics and will be dealt with according to regulations.

It is certainly wrong for teachers to accept gifts, but if there is no gift-giving, there will be no gift-receiving behavior. Gift-receiving behavior cannot be viewed in isolation. On the one hand, teachers are engineers of the human soul. They must "set an example for students to learn, work, and be a human being" and become a model respected by society. They should serve as role models and should be honest and self-disciplined. On the other hand, teachers are also ordinary people who can Facing the test of human nature. In order for the teacher to have a high regard for their children, some parents "tilt" them, and apply social ties and tricks to teachers in the name of "respecting teachers and valuing education." This will make Teachers make mistakes or even make mistakes. Resolutely don't accept any gifts. It seems inhumane and will hurt the parents' self-esteem. Accepting gifts is against the rules.

It was exposed that the teacher received gifts. This is really not the fault of any party. This not only damages the image of teachers, but also damages the image of parents themselves, and is not conducive to the establishment of a good home-school relationship. If parents didn't think about giving gifts and didn't send gifts to the teacher's community, this would not happen. Some netizens said that this situation should be set up several times to prevent teachers from accepting gifts in order to purify the atmosphere.In fact, if a slap can't make a sound, we must control the hands of teachers receiving gifts and the hands of parents giving gifts, so as not to undermine fairness, and naturally there will be a clean and upright atmosphere.

The establishment of a good home-school relationship depends on fairness, decency and aboveboardness on both sides, and forming a positive interaction while adhering to principles. For parents, don’t be obsessed with giving gifts, and don’t think about breaking rules to benefit your children. On the one hand, we cannot be disgusted with the trend of giving gifts to teachers, and on the other hand, we should become a member of the group who give gifts to teachers. What I really want to express my gratitude to my teacher is not to give gifts. Cooperating with the school to educate children and allowing them to grow up healthily is the best gift for teachers. If you are dissatisfied with the teacher, you can communicate directly and frankly, or report it to the school.

In any case, this matter is also a warning to other teachers. "To establish morality, we must first establish a teacher, and to educate others, we must first rectify ourselves." This is the first priority. As long as you persist in cultivating your moral character and set an example for others in terms of personality and moral character, you don't have to worry about the times when teachers' ethics will fail.
