On today's episode of Great Moral Dilemmas of the Day, we introduce you to Tericka Dye, a mother of four and high school science teacher in Chesterfield, Missouri. She's been working in the Parkway School District outside St. Louis for the past four years...

What the district didn't know when they hired her is that she used to have another job back in the '90s as a porn actress. At the time, she was going by the name Rikki Andersin, which is why it never showed up on background checks.

She now calls that past life a mistake, a misguided way to earn a living for a girl from the wrong side of the tracks.

So in 2005, she landed a job in Paducah, Kentucky, where she taught science and coached volleyball. Alas, a student discovered she'd once been a professional in the bare-naked sciences. She was placed on administrative leave and her contract wasn't renewed.

She moved on to Missouri, apparently not mentioning that she'd been outed in Kentucky. It doesn't appear that there were any complaints about her work. In Kentucky, in fact, fellow teachers rallied behind her, believing her job should be saved.

But now she's been outed by another student. It's hard to hide a porn past when teenage boys are busy scouring every illicit movie made since the invention of the mammary. This time, she's decided to resign instead of fight.

So we ask you, dearest reader: Do you think this is fair? Would you allow your kid to be taught by Dye if she was an otherwise capable teacher?
