Teacher leaves people divided by revealing presents they absolutely don't want from parents this Christmas

A teacher has raised eyebrows for sharing some of the gifts she wouldn't like to receive from students.

Whether it's for Teacher Appreciation Week or for Christmas, it's not uncommon for teachers to get presents from their students.

Of course these gifts are likely to have been picked out for their parents, and elementary school teacher Natalie gave a controversial gift guide.

In now-viral video that Natalie posted last year, she listed three things that teachers supposedly don't want as a form of gratitude.

"Number one: anything in an Victoria's Secret bag," she began.

"I don't care that you didn't get them underwear, that lotion smells bad and now you have a Victoria's Secret bag on your desk.

"It's just awkward."

The second one Natalie shared as being a no-go was 'an unannounced giant treat for the whole class'.

Explaining her reasoning for this, she said: "Listen, it's cool that you want to get everybody donuts but you need to ask ahead when and if the teach is okay with that."

Natalie added that it gives the kids a 'giant sugar high' followed quickly by a sugar crash.

"It's just way too much sugar, especially for the little guys," she continued.

For the third and final point, Natalie said that teacher's 'don't want your advances'.

"I've had a few dads try to come on to me over the years and it is uncomfortable," the educator said.

Natalie further pointed out that she has to see the same parents for a whole year so it's best they keep their relationship strictly professional.

"Maybe go online an find someone," Natalie concluded.

The video received a mixed response from people online; many of whom said she should be grateful for whatever she receives.

"Or just say thank you and show some gratitude," one person suggested.

Discussing the gift of Victoria's Secret items, another said: "I got a fragrance set from VS and it was the best gift I’ve gotten as a teacher."

Someone else echoed: "I'm a school bus driver and my favorite gift this year was a VS perfume."

Others simply said they were happy to receive 'anything' as a present.

Meanwhile, different TikTok users understood Natalie's comments and defended her.

One person penned: "All the people getting salty in the comments, have to actually watch the video, all reasonable requests!"

"Everyone is hating but like... I agree with her," said a second.
