different opinion
By Lydia

I'm 33 and I guess I look at this a little differently. I would not mention that you live together. You need to respect the morals and values of all the children in your classroom. No matter what year it is, there are
people - old and young - that believe people should not live together until they are married. If you engage in any activity that would be offensive morally to another person, I would keep that activity personal.
My own sister lives with her boyfriend, my children are not allowed to sleep over there unless he spends the night elsewhere. THey also do not talk about their living arrangements

in front of my children. My sister respects that I have this value and would like to enforce it with my own children at their young age. I certainly don't humiliate or chastise my sister for her life choices - but I also feel that she needs to respect mine and my children's.
