[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Forcing people back to work when it could cause permanent medical damage to their person - wow - you all really show the reason we need a union.

And the union for kids, who ate certainly suffering permanent damage? [/quote]

FFS.  Get your kid a therapist if you are worried about that.

Pandemic sucks, being stuck at home with no IPL sucks.  Its hard.  its hard on the kid and its hard on the parents.

But if you tell your kid how they are suriving the pandemic vs. they are suffering - they might do better.

If you build a routine outside of school they will do better.

If you talk to them about their feelings vs. how well they are doing in school 24/7 and what they are missing maybe they will do better.

Its SUCKS!  There is no way around that.  But what is worse is having a zoom funeral for a teacher; parent.  I've seen kids go through that - its worse than my kid having a tantrum over writing a sentence.

BTW my kid has been suffering for months.  I am fine on a cold day not going out - but its not good for him.  So I bundle up and take him out for fresh air.  It sucks that he doesn't have a backyard or a playroom or a sibling to fight and then I have to be all of those things. But dying is worse; life long lung problems are worse.

Its a pandemic - its not a choice to isolate and distance and mask - its survival.

You can teach your kid the class is always half full or  you can teach them to be resilient.

And yes complain constantly to DCPS about the bad vax plans, the bad return to school plans (why haven't we had tents on fields; why isn't there at least outdoor recess by the schools we can take them too) they have known about this for how many months.  There should have ben 10 different plans for 10 different situations.

There is more than one solution but going back in person with unvaccinated teachers is not one of them.

DCPS should be working on some kind of summer camp socialization deal - are they ? I doubt it.

Parents have been working from home - everyone has been working from home - but apparently DCPS has lots of people working from home who have done nothing!  I have been through the offices on first street.  So many people, so so so many people - and apparently they have done nothing!!![/quote]

Teachers aren’t going to start dropping dead because school partly reopens.  You are being way dramatic and unscientific.[/quote]
