[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Folks who are angry now must have forgotten what it was like the first year of the pandemic. No one knew what the virus was capable of - what it would do to adults and kids alike. Hospitals were overwhelmed. Our leadership makes decisions based on the information available. It is unfortunate kids were out of school for so long, however, it’s now up to us to come together and help our kids and not expend unnecessary energy on the blame game. If it was your son/daughter who died because schools were open, you’d sing a different tune. [/quote]

That's what you're hiding behind - but I was mad then and I'm mad now.  I knew it was going to be horrendous socially and educationally all along.  Anyone with one iota of common sense knew that.  [/quote]

Whatever.  I'm tired of irate parents who claim they knew it all all along.  Bull frickin sh**.  God help us if another pandemic comes along, because a-hats like you will not want any measures in place and God forbid it's a virus that hits kids worse than adults (which is more common and was a weird thing about COVID) then kids will die because jerks like you will be out in the streets refusing to follow any precautions.

Let's move forward.  We cannot change the past.  Let's invest all energy in helping kids now and planning ahead.
