Is it normal that i love my teacher like a mom?
I’ve had this teacher for 2 years now. I stay after school and talk to her everyday, I help her clean up her room, we talk about our days, etc. I go to her room as often as possible, typically everyday during study hall and lunch. We understand eachother and love a lot of the same things. She came to a couple of my football games, she stays after school and helps me with homework. She helps out a lot in her class for me, gives me points for work I hardly did, writes a decent chunk of my essays, etc. She always comes to me to ask how the class was when she wasn’t there, to ask what is up with a kid that I know, all that. She gives me candy, tells me things about the class that she doesn’t tell anyone else, comes up behind me and gives hugs, gives me extensions on homework. The other day I wrote her a letter saying that I see her as a mother and that I love her and thanking her for all the help. She told me that the note made her cry first thing in the morning, that she is very very glad I am in her class and getting the chances I deserve, and that she loves me too and sees me as a kid of her own. I fight to get into her class if Im not in it, she tries to get me in her class. There is so much more, I honestly see her as more of a mother than my actual mom. My weekends are so long, I just wait to see her again.
