I felt bad for the guy with the kid with autism too. They were just really rude and cold to him. It was unnecessary. |
whoosh |
They literally do not respond to public commenters |
Yes, please don't generalize by virtual/hybrid numbers. We picked virtual because hybrid does not offer much to us, and we'd lose grandparent help. I would much rather have 5 day in-person with proper mitigation. And it better be 5-day in the fall, or people will be seriously crushed, kids and parents. |
It's also been in the news. Google works too. Stop asking people to do something you can easily do - look it up. |
That’s because we have to deal with a public that has no clue how incredibly time consuming and draining this job is. There’s a reason half of all teachers leave the profession. Within the first five years. |
or storm the Capitol. Or maybe he did. |
Um, yes, that's literally what compulsory education is. And it's quite possible that it will resume before some people are ready. Then we'll either let their children continue to not be educated by very hard working but ineffective remote teachers or force them to go to school. |
I saw an interview with him. He was angry and is not at all a lunatic.
School systems that are refusing to open for in person learning are not following the science. And these are the same people who scream, "follow the science!" when it comes to mask wearing. These systems are being held hostage by teachers' unions. Maybe if they aren't paid unless they return, that might change. BTW - teen suicide is significantly up. Reporting of abuse is down. The ramifications of keeping schools closed are being ignored. The cure cannot be worse than the disease. Right now, for kids, it is. |
What facts did this guy put forth? That his garbage collectors faced a higher risk of getting Covid than teachers? |
My kids are doing great with distance learning. *shrug* |
whoosh x2 google "sarcasm" DP |
Sorry, just become some angry white man throws a temper tantrum, doesn't mean it will happen. It's not 1952 anymore. |
Yup. Next year they'll be fearmongering about gangs. |
He is representative of millions out there. And, you know who is suffering the worse the longer schools stay closed? Poor students. Students of color. Immigrant students. Students with disabilities. That "white man" was speaking for them too.. |
