[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was shocked to see such cold and uncaring comments from a school counselor.  If my child were at his school, that discussion would have destroyed any faith I might have had in their counseling services.

On the other hand, the other school counselor who joined in with is a wonderful person and counselor (based on professional interactions outside of AEM), and I was glad she joined in to offer constructive comments.[/quote]

I agree.  I was disgusted by the Wakefield counselor’s comments.

Also, the complete blowing off of the parents especially by the women who are posting constantly that it’s unsafe to go to school.  As a parent who’s dealt with  a child having suicide ideation, I couldn’t believe their callousness.[/quote]

I honestly can't deal with the parents who are scrutinizing mask policies as if the perfect policy will actually prevent middle schoolers from wearing it under their noses. [/quote]

my 3 year old and his little classmates are able to wear masks all day at daycare. I see elementary schoolers running around on the playground wearing masks. Why do we keep thinking kids are incapable of wearing masks?[/quote]

I don't think it is so much that we think kids can't wear masks as the fact that some parents will be mad if schools try to enforce the mask policy when their kid violates it and earns a consequence. [b] This isn't a kid problem as much as it is a parent problem.[/b] [b] There are a lot of parents who don't care if their kids don't follow the rules.  It happened pre-Covid and the fear is that it will be worse post-Covid.  [/b]Unfortunately the kids whose parents most want them in school also are the kids whose parents aren't able to handle them at home for obvious reasons.[/quote]

This I agree with.  My biggest concern as a parent is other parents.  Some of you will let your kids do anything, and I am worried about what that means for my kids.[/quote]
