I had my last day with a smaller rural school and we decided to take a class photo, but didn't have anyone to help. So, I set the camera on the timer and placed it on the playground stage. When I got home, I discovered that the students had truly let their true colors show. So, which of these two photos would be better to send to my 5th grade class?
1. photo with boy flipping off two classmates, or
2. photo with boy having attach while flipping off me--and all of the world presumably
(photos are cropped--the original actually has all the students and me of course)

Why? They'll probably say flipping someone off is a westerner thing and blame the OP.

Yeh, that is what they will say. But some old school Korean will still give them kids the stick.

I think blurring out the hands will be enough. This is a rural school and about 10% of the kids have emotional or social problems. 10% is a big number and it really has an impact on the normal kids.

Every time I see a Seoul ad such as "Soul of Asia" I think of these kids out here in the bundocks.

Adeline did a great job, but i kinda like the one with the flowers. that was funny.

And it is correct the op will get blamed some how. I can picture the op getting sued by the boys parents for messing around with that photo. "My angel would never do that."

Guess that would be a great avitar.....

I agree, the one with the flowers was totally awesome, but I don't think parents would like that either
