[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Parent here. I don't want schools open right now, for the obvious reasons you stated. But it is beyond dumb to shut down schools while keeping bars and casinos open. It’s just near-sighted greed. My kids are lucky to have great teachers who are really trying hard, but there is NO DOUBT that most kids, including mine, are missing out on important education. And that’s not even starting in on the profound stress and loss of income that having them home all day is putting on parents (I work from home and husband has to work out of home, so my work is suffering. Like many families, we aren’t rich enough to hire help and are just doing our best with it all). OP, parents are angry that kids are at the bottom of the priorities list and that our society has been making choices that lead to the current situation. I wouldn’t ask a teacher to work in a school with the current metrics. But we didn't have to be here. [/quote] I don’t think that conflicts with anything the OP is saying?[/quote]
