Answer:
Generally speaking, it is not illegal for a teacher to date a parent provided they have attained the age of consent. However many private schools have their own separate rules and regulations for the teachers they employ. Illegal is a description for something that is in violation of statute, regulation or ordinance. A dating relationship between a parent and teacher may violate school policy and be subject to consequences per policy of the school.
