[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are definitely kids who are doing better in DL. They tend to be kids who had significant anxiety issues around in-person school before. I think one lesson that should be learned from this pandemic is that there is a group of kids for whom the stress of in-person learning impedes their access to education.

However, this group shouldn't be driving education policy for the population as a whole. [/quote]

[b]My kids do well at both. [/b] We've taught them to be flexible when an emergency comes up as we've had many and to make the best of a hard situation.  We also heavily support them in school regardless of how the actual teaching is done.  Parental support, especially k-6th is vital.  You cannot expect a K to just do DL or even in school and not supplement with the basics.[/quote]

We're glad your kids are those rare unicorns who are doing well right now. The point is that *many* other families are not served well by DL even with parents martyring themselves trying to make it work. Your incessant shouting that everything must be fine is drowning out those other legitimate perspectives.[/quote]
