Dh and I each pay 10k+ in state taxes and more than half of that goes to the schools. [/quote]

Well, sweetie, not everyone can do that.

Do you want to just shut down public schools entirely because you can homeschool?[/quote]

DP here, but this is basically the argument the "you don't want to parent your kids" people are making, that any decent parent SHOULD be able to spend every day focused on hands-on involvement in their kid's education, and any flaws in DL are due to parental failure. I don't think they understand that this is an argument against public schools. [/quote]

Right that’s my point.

The logical endpoint to their argument is shutting down public schools and putting them all out of jobs.

Ironic, eh?[/quote]

You don’t need to spend 8 hours a day to keep kids up in school. A few hours every night will do.[/quote]

And what, pray tell, will my child do during the day?

I do have a job, you know. [/quote]

There is child care for parents that are required to go to work.

What do you do with them now?[/quote]

Oh yeah of course — the teachers won’t teach now and call us lazy, but it’s fine for childcare workers to take care of the kids, right? Just offload what the teachers don’t want to do.

At least we’re all being honest now.[/quote]

Actually, FCPS teachers are 80% white and by definition making a good salary, for all their whining.

Vs. childcare workers, who are often black and brown and get paid a fraction of teachers.

It’s much uglier than what you are suggesting. Teachers think their lives are worth more. Wonder why?

In related news, guess which group got the vaccine ticket?

It kinda makes me want to find a BLM March when I piece it together. [/quote]

This is really the whole irony of the whole thing!!!

Now I think the true people who care about BLM want both in person and virtual options. [/quote]
