I'd ask why not, given they've opened every single other time MCPS allowed them to.

Are you insane? Even Sunday and Monday hospitals and doctors offices were open. Because the world doesn’t stop because it snows.

Even my kids’ tae kwon do and gymnastics studio were open and teaching today. Because those people don’t get paid unless they work unlike McPS staff.

Exactly. That's what I'm saying. Shut down the hospitals and clinics until they force MCPS to stop hating working parents.

How would that work? Do you think the world revolves around MCPS?

If you're a parent it does. It turns out, some parents are workers. I know that's a foreign concept to Taylor and the MoCo elite.

Working parents should call out. Shut things down. I'm sure the rich folks in Bethesda would love prepping for a colonoscopy only to have it cancelled at the last minute because they don't have the staff.

Things would change quickly.

How would you feel if all teachers went on strike until parents collectively managed to get their kids under control or do out of school assignments? Your jobs are not any more important than ours.

You're the one seeking special treatment. Other people are expected to work. But you claim you can't possibly be expected to shovel your car out.

Not the prior poster (my road still hasn't been plowed) but arguing that hospitals should go in strike because the mcps school administration won't open schools is crazy work.

How do you expect working parents to staff those hospitals if MCPS won't let child care open?

Our hospital has been closed. They aren’t sure about tomorrow.

Hospitals don’t close. That’s kind of the entire point of them.

Which hospital has closed? That’s really not a thing that they do…

Correct, but they also don't necessarily expect that everyone will be there. They evaluate the conditions and then plan for what will happen. For instance whether elective or non-emergent procedures will be rescheduled. The plan for less staff. The also have things like generators, and beds for staff to sleep if needed.

Yes but that is not what the PP said. They said “our hospital has been closed” and I want to know which area hospital closed. Name it or it didn’t happen.

Also how would you respond if other locations opened but yours did not?

Obviously it didn't happen. It was just one of Tepid Tom's goons in the CO trying to justify an awful decision.

I'm not sure what point you're trying to make. The child care providers have a strong financial incentive to open. The workers have an even stronger incentive to come in. They open when they're allowed to. Anyone who pays for these services will tell you that has been their experience. Like of like private child care in general.

MCPS is the outlier here.

Opening some childcare centers and not others would be very inequitable. What about people who live upcounty and get their streets plowed last.

Just because your neighborhood is prioritized first, doesn't mean that everything should be able to revolve around you.

Some schools are not even dug out. Help put and start digging

Some are. Why not let them open their child care programs? MCPS did in the past.

No it's not. Just reflect and think. People need to understand that this is MCPS, in all CAPS. It's not just your own bubble that dictates these decisions. Have some heart.

Child care programs inherently aren't "equitable" in the way you're trying to use the term. You have to pay to
use them.

Should we close down all child care programs until they're universally accessible?
