[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] No. DL is happening because we are in a pandemic. People assumed that schools were legally required to provide them with childcare. They are not. [/quote] That's not fair. It is perfectly reasonable for parents to expect that schools provide child care. That's how the system was built up and people planned their lives and careers around the expectation that once kids hit K, they would be able to cut back on the need for paid child care except for holidays and summer vacation or sick.snow days. However, older kids, especially teens, do not need child care. For at least some of them, Distance Learning has been OK and maybe even preferable to in person school, especially if they can get their in-person socializing needs met after school. For kids on "Home and Hospital" instruction due to medical needs, it has been a book. For kids in inpatient treatment for anorexia or another illness, it has been great.[/quote]
