No sweetie, the kids need the social aspects too. You know this, or I hope you know this. They also need structure in their day. They need recess and soccer and bell schedules.

Teachers keep telling us screen time is bad, then DL is all on screens all day long, which is totally fine. That is the true hypocrisy.

Definitely your point is so much stronger because you add sweetie in every comment. Brilliance I tell you. Rhetorical strategy at its finest. You’re also completely off topic. Now we are circling around to whether DL is good or not? Nobody in this thread is having that argument.

Different poster here. We send our kids to school for socialization, and because I need a babysitter so I can work for a few hours. The real learning happens at home. We have to supplement due to the poor education they received in elementary. They are now thriving!

Ok? Is this show and share time?

Pretty much. And, FWIW, we hope distance learning continues the entire year. Our kids are learning far more at home. If their friends were in school without them, they would be sad. But, because everyone is home, it is great!

DL for the rest of the year. My kids can enjoy a nutritious warm meal (wild caught salmon, herbed organic potatoes, organic green salad, butternut squash, etc) every day.

Pity the poor farm-raised salmon who pretend to offer the same health benefits. And who would touch organic potatoes lacking thyme and rosemary? Zucchini or iceberg lettuce tainted by pesticides? This world is too cruel.

Here we go. All the teachers lining up to pretend they are parents loving distance learning. I have yet to meet a parent that does not say its horrible. Literally every parent I have talked to, and we are not talking a handful.

I don't know what is more humorous, this or earlier in the thread when they all lined up pretending to have gone to the ivy's. Spent a couple hundred grand on an education only to become a low paid teacher at a public school, sure you did.

NP: I'm not a teacher, but I'm okay with how DL is going. I wish we weren't in a pandemic and things were normal, but there are perks to having lunch with my kids every day, checking in with them during their 5 min breaks and not having to deal with kiss & ride or getting them up in time for the 1 mile walk. We have a couple friends they meet with to play after school and they've settled into a routine. I'm not that excited for concurrent hybrid as we've just settled in, but we'll adapt when it happens.

Yeah DL is going great for us. I mean who wouldn't love hearing the same 5 kids being confused as to how to operate their laptop?! Are hearing the kids have to be spoon fed how to get to a website as my daughter has sat on the same website for 10 minutes but can't move on because the whole class isn't ready. Or the best when 10 kids ask the same question that the teacher has patiently gone over in crystal clear detail then then the other 10 kids raising their hand just to say I understand and I've already done it. Meanwhile my 2nd grader is reading her book while in class cause she's so bored. DL is great, for wine producers. But if you ask my liver and sanity not so much.

Hi nice to meet you. Not horrible.
