My concern as an educator is being left alone with a teen of the opposite sex, and no protection from elite kids and their lawyers. I passed on an opportunity to teach in a pod this year.

The problem will be when those teachers try to re-enter the workforce to get their benefits package back. They may be blacklisted.
