[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'd give it a while. They'll prob figure out it doesn't work and the rule will eventually disappear.

With a lot of things in life, you can wait it out until others realize the idea is a bad one. [/quote]

Yea it won't work because of parents intentionally sending sick kids and poorly fitting masks.  Somehow mine has never been sick in 2+ years thanks to masks.  And my kid was super verbal well before preschool age, unless you wear mask non stop at home I don't even understand the argument that masks are too blame for your kids speech issues.  My niece had a speech delay and it was obvious we'll before she was old enough to mask or be enrolled in preschool where she was around kids during say in masks.  Obviously her family didn't mask in their own home[/quote]

And yet, speech delays skyrocketed during covid, despite access to special education services and developmental pediatricians and therapists being limited.

And while it's not clear exactly how much of that can be attributed to masks, that's the main thing that was different about this years for young kids. Infants and toddlers were spending most of their waking hours interacting with masked caregivers. When they got older, they were interacting with masked peers. That's not developmentally normal.[/quote]
