  Case: TMI
My friend that teaches at the high school level has a student that is constantly informing her of things of a personal nature such as what she did with a boyfriend of sneaking out at night. The teacher has discouraged the behavior but is wondering if she needs to inform administration.
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
The student could be seeking attention by informing the teacher of everything, so the teacher should show the student they are actively listening. There are laws that say the teacher need to report thing that could harm the student or others. If the behavior is extremely risky and dangerous, the teacher may have to report it. If not so risky, I would still document all things said to me.
