[quote=Anonymous]This what I realized in the fall.  If you have a misfortune of living in a school district not interested in reopening, there is no one to help you. They will carry on, finding new justifications for why they can’t reopen. Bottom line: they don’t care about your or your kids’ mental health.
So it’s time to take matters into our own hands. I don’t mean protests, there’s no momentum etc.
I mean we are each responsible for our own well-being. 
Find families that understand that outdoor socializing of asymptomatic kids is low risk, heck, even indoors is not terribly dangerous. My kid is super selective in friendships and it was hard but we found a family plus he has cousins across the country who we visit every several months.
Find ways for your kids to learn. I have no money or space for a tutor so I teach him myself as much as I can. Some things I let go (so much junk taught at school).
Getting angry and staying angry at those who don’t reopen schools is not productive. 
It’s time for us to stop following guidelines blindly without regard for our kids’ mental health and find ways to balance risk and self-care.
Thank you for listening. Just wanted to get it out there. Not looking to argue - but maybe someone reluctant will read this and know what to do. [/quote]
