VA schools closed for year, what does it mean for daycare?

[Anonymous]

But what will essential workers do if there is no childcare. You should need to show you are essential to allow your kid to attend but they need to be open for those people.

The state government needs to facilitate childcare services for these workers. General centers are not equipped to handle this sort of crisis or the lawsuits that could follow.

Come out of your privileged bubble. Unemployment is for people who have zero income, not someone who still has a job but reduced income.

Plus the amount she'd get might not even amount to $2,500. Even if you used to earn six figures and pay is capped at a certain amount.

Except, my daycare center is closed saying they cant keep less than 10 in a room. They actually closed a week ago under another excuse and said tuition in full was still due.

No idea how it will work. Mainly because I will not be sending my children.

My bigger worry is that she is putting her profit over children's safety and is not going to be following the regulations. If she opens on Monday, I am probably going to give notice because I am concerned at what other corners she will cut.

Franklin? Yes I’m concerned too.

This is the dumbest decision by a governor. No reason to do this.
