Teacher starts OnlyFans account because of low salary
Now the school where she works is going to fire her.
Kristen MacDonald, a social educator from Port Coquitlam, started an OnlyFans account and started selling 18+ content because of her low salary. Now the school where she works is demanding her account be deleted under threat of termination. Before condemning her, it's worth hearing her story: the local union of social educators believes that this is not her fault, but a disgrace to the education system.
A social pedagogue is a difficult and noble profession that sucks all the energy out of teachers. These people do not teach an entire class, but help teach special children: the deaf, the visually impaired, children with autism, etc. For a special child, such a teacher is very important: sometimes he or she becomes the only one through whom the child has an opportunity to explore the world and gain knowledge. Especially if there are no special schools in the city where the pedagogical staff knows how to work with children with disabilities. Kristen helps children with autism — she grew up with an autistic brother and has known how to care for them since childhood.
Unfortunately, this hard work is sometimes very poorly paid. Unlike ordinary teachers in British Columbia, social educators barely make ends meet. Because of this, they have to take part-time jobs. MacDonald gets tired at the end of the day and couldn't take extra jobs as a cashier or janitor. But nature has blessed her with spectacular looks. She decided to make some extra money by selling erotic photographs to 18+ people and opened an account OnlyFans under a pseudonym. It should be noted that this kind of work is completely legal in British Columbia. In addition, the content created is not pornography, as Kristen herself says.
However, one of the students' parents found her account, read the content and complained to the administration of her school. They sent her a letter and demanded that she delete all her accounts immediately, or else she would be fired.
Kristen's salary at school is only $50,000 CAD per year — with taxes deducted, that's only CAD 39 000. That's below the Canadian average wage and well below the average wage in British Columbia, one of the most expensive provinces in the country. The average person there makes CAD 70 500. Kristen's salary is the same as people just starting out in the workforce — entry level jobs in the region pay from CAD 48 500 a year. But she's been working at the school for nine years.
