[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am not one of these "open school" yellers and I don't think teachers are bad or lazy. We are doing the best we can and so are they.

That being said, my kids are pretty unhappy and really do want to go back to school. Both are extremely extroverted and both loved school prior to Covid and got good grades (and still are.) Yes they see friends and do extracurriculars but that is not nearly enough for them. When I hear so many people (on here and IRL) say their kids "love DL" it is incomprehensible to me, in the literal sense of the word. Are these kids just very introverted and don't require much interaction with others to be content? Did they dislike school before Covid?

Hoping for a few sincere answers before the trolls take over. [/quote]

No, mine is not. Mine likes to not have to get up at the crack of dawn for a lengthy bus rid to a school 3 miles away. She likes being able to do classes in her PJs and to get up and move around with her computer. She also doesn't have to deal with certain student groups (the "popular" kids, who are generally jerks; the kids constantly causing disruptions, etc.). And she has more time in her day. There is a lot of wasted school time during the day.

She has a couple friends in our neighborhood that she sometimes does classes with (in our "bubble"). And she has an outdoor, masked sport she participates in. So she gets some outlet.

She asked to be homeschooled next year, something I declined at this point. But I would be open to it depending on how it goes.[/quote]
