A compilation video of a student and his teacher over the years is gaining traction on social media– not only because of the many years that have passed between them as a student-and-teacher, but also because at the end, they get married despite the 25-year age gap.
The love story garnered positive comments on how ‘age is just a number’, but there were others who showed some concern over possibilities of child grooming.
The video, originally posted on TikTok, then drew discussion about child grooming and teacher-student relationships.

The first selfie with the teacher is in 2016. In 2018, the student is still wearing a school uniform. In 2020, the two were married, suggesting that the two tied the knot just shortly after the student’s graduation, likely only in his early 20’s.
I try not to judge the teacher. I tried. but I can't 😂😂 jauh nau umur. terpengaruh ngan novel ke odo

Technically, the marriage and relationship are legal as both parties are adults over the age of 18.
I remember as a 14,15 year old girl,my friends pun ade crush over handsome temporary teachers. We swoon and admire them, we're kids. But is it normal for those 25,26 year old teachers to fancy a 15 year old girl that admires them that way? No.They should be fired if they were to.
