[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What do you mean "the level of mask discipline required in those circumstances cannot be maintained in schools"?  It currently IS being maintained in schools, with high levels of acceptance and adherence by students and staff alike.  The only people screeching about how masks need to come off are the people who AREN'T in schools.  By and large, teachers and staff in Alexandria schools strongly support masking, especially when they don't know if a child has been vaccinated or not (yes, there is a small number who want to unmask but it is a sificantly small number).  As parents, we strongly support masking for the same reason.  We have absolutely no confidence that the unmaskers have vaccinated their children; after all, if they were more careful and prudent they wouldn't support unmasking in the first place so it stands to reason that they also would be anti-vaxers.

Yesterday I overheard a few people discussing the possibility of a class action suit aimed at the SB if they move forward with following the EO & SB 739.  I believe the speakers were also discussion either the same or a different suit (spelling?  law is not my area) Youngkin and all the other bleepers who supported the new legislation.  We could firmly get behind that.

The SB for Alexandria has a fiduciary responsibility to keep our children safe.  Putting children in harms way by purposefully exposing them to unmasked and unvaccinated children certainly seems to go against that responsibility.  If unmasked and unvaccinated children are kept in a different room and if they are not near my children, fine.  If not, then we will have a big problem.  It is not okay to endanger my children because some anti-vaxer and anti-masker is having an anxiety attack about their kid wearing a mask.  Preventing unmasked and unvaccinated children being around mine in school would be a law suit we would fully support in word, action and as much money as it takes.[/quote]

This just makes me so sad. As a mom to a kid with significant speech difficulties, who is really struggling to understand and be understood, the fact that parents out there feel this way are heartbroken. Please don't assume that all kids that unmask have anti-vaxxer, anti-mask parents. My kid is vaccinated, and already had covid, so really isn't a danger to your child. Your attitude and heartlessness towards my kid is terrifying.[/quote]
