A male primary school teacher in Xinyi, Maoming, a city in Guangdong, was caught trying to solicit sex from a child's mother in exchange for a place in the school. The story recently went viral on an online forum, along with WeChat messages exchanged between the woman and the teacher.

The teacher had written to the parent on WeChat, “It can be done once [the prostitution], and I will try my hardest to get you it [the place in the school].” “If you promise that it will be done next week [the place in the school],” responded the mother.

According to the post online, the parent threatened to go public with the conversation, exposing the teacher's intentions. Unexpectedly, the teacher said that it did not matter. He said he was tired after being a teacher for more than a decade, and was concerned that the parent's children would not get a spot in the school.

The local education department investigated the article and found that the teacher in the post was a primary school teacher named Mr. Zhou. Zhou said that WeChat dialogue was real, but the sexual encounter had not actually ever occurred. He said he had never actually violated the rules to get a child an illegal spot in the school.

Xianyi officials said that this was still a serious ethics breach, and Zhou has been banned from teaching for five years.

Many Netizens believed that Zhou's punishment was too light. Many said that Zhou still had tried to have sex with the woman in exchange for admission for her child. This kind of dealing could prove to be disastrous for a child.

Others said that the opportunistic parent was more to blame than the teacher. Most Netizens agreed that both parties were to blame in the case.
