The leak of suggestive photos by a student’s parent led to the almost immediate dismissal of Elena Maraga.
A Teacher Found on OnlyFans: Parents Speak Up
Employers disagree with her hobby. The story begins in Italy when a mother catches her husband looking at suggestive photos. To her surprise, she realizes that the young woman her husband is ogling is their child’s kindergarten teacher!
Determined to get her fired, the mother quickly spreads the news. Two groups of parents then form: those demanding her dismissal and those defending her fiercely. The rise of Mym and OnlyFans accounts has sparked heated debates and raised serious ethical questions: Does the existence of such content affect the ability to perform certain jobs, particularly in specific environments, like religious schools?
Despite letters from parents supporting the young woman and alerts from unions, the administration decides in favor of the first group. The 29-year-old teacher is dismissed after she refused to delete her accounts on adult platforms.
“Dismissed for Inappropriate Behavior”
In an interview with A2, the young woman recounts the exact sequence of events. “A father of one of my students purchased my photos and distributed them among the football group. Then his wife found out,” she reports. The young teacher explains: “I love myself, and I have turned my passion for my body into a source of income. I don’t understand what the problem is. Living on 1,200 euros a month is exhausting, which is why I started this account.”
Her motivations, both aesthetic and financial, did not soften the stance of her superiors. They preferred to communicate through letters and emails rather than meeting with her in person after the incident. “They sent me a letter stating that I was dismissed for inappropriate behavior because the relationship of trust was damaged. I find that 100% unfair,” she says.
She adds: “Taking suggestive photos has never compromised my professionalism at work. [….] I’m surprised that a Catholic school that preaches morality treats an employee this way.” The Italian Ministry of Education seems to lean towards the school’s position and has indicated its intention to create a new code of ethics to prevent teachers from appearing on adult sites. In the meantime, the young woman hopes to find another job as a teacher: “I love being a kindergarten teacher; it has been my vocation since I was a child.”
