The free will argument doesn’t work for kids. School before 16 is mandatory. A child’s only option is what the adults(families) chose for them. So to the free will person if you don’t like what is happening homeschool is the option you can use your free will to impose homeschooling upon your kids. |
Exactly. As their adult parent I choose what they should be doing with respect to their right to public school that I pay for. |
SO free will is only available to those who want to send their kids to school without regard for their ability to infect others with health conditions or with the under 5 family members with health conditions? Good to know public schools aren’t an option for us. I guess families relying on 2 incomes have the “free will” to give up one of those incomes to homeschool. Enjoy your “free will.” Sounds like selfishness to me. |
What about all the kids with health conditions who also need to go to school and should be able to do that with a modicum of safety?
Oh right you don’t care about them. |
There are VERY, VERY few kids that have safety issues. And you know what? They'd have safety issues pre-COVID too, especially this time of year with the flu. H1N1 killed way more kids on annual basis than COVID has. There are 200 endemic respiratory viruses. They would handle them the same way. This is just a triple vaccinated person who is trying to avoid a virus everyone will get (and a cold from it), and using our kids as their viral shields. It's hypochondria and it's a mental illness. |
Surveillance testing for asymptomatic cases = school closures by stealth
No thanks! |
Are people constantly positive with COVID and emitting it? This is a crazy, crazy idea - if you go to eat indoors, you're automatically positive with COVID. If you've been living like this for 10 months now, then what? We've been infecting people constantly for 10 months? COVIDian logic is always non-existent. |
Wish I knew who you and the person after you is so we could get drinks. In public. So glad I'm not alone. |
