[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Look, clearly, the teachers want the kids to wear masks. Maybe they have health conditions. Maybe they have family members with health conditions. If you guys are jerks to them about it, there’s a chance they might quit and get another job. So I would just go with the flow.

Personally, I think the guidance should be that if the teacher in the classroom wants kids to wear masks, they should wear masks unless they have a specific exception for like a developmental disability or something.[/quote]

Given how little we know about the impact of masks on young children's development, I think such a policy would be horribly irresponsible as it amounts to indefinite masking of many young children during a time when the CDC does not recommend masks for anybody. It is amazing and honestly terrifying to me to see how differently my 3 yo interacts with other kids when neither is masked. This is a huge experiment we are putting our young kids in. If we do it it should at least be based on public health guidance, not individual people's feelings.[/quote]

We know the impact COVID can have on someone, especially health issues.   You don't care about those kids?  What if it was your kid and you had to pay their medical bills?[/quote]

It is my kid with mental health issues exacerbated by the pandemic, and nobody else but me and DH arepaying her therapy bills. Are you offering to help with that?[/quote]
