[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I really don’t understand the argument that parents are making about how their children “need to see their friends” so schools should open. It’s like people have blinders on and refuse to acknowledge that isolation is literally the only way to control the spread of the virus. Of course your children are isolated. If they aren’t, you’re not doing it right. Does it suck? Yes. Does dying alone gasping for air on a ventilator also suck? Yes.

Further, if you really think it’s safe for groups of people to gather together, nothing is stopping you from allowing your child to hang out with their friends. Nothing. It doesn’t mean we need to endanger thousands of people who actually care about mitigation and preventing the spread of the new variants (and further mutation of the virus). Do people not understand that we could wind up with vaccine resistant strains and prolong the pandemic by YEARS by refusing to comply with social distancing? I’m so sick of living this way because some people refuse to make ANY sacrifices. [/quote]

I don't know what other people's situation is but for me, I am not really friends with any of the parents in my kid's class. For one reason or another he is not invited for playdates. I have invited two of his friends. One just never reciprocated, the other's mom said she would get back to me and never did. I am not going to try again, I just don't have the energy. At school they were seeing each other naturally, I didn't have to do anything. same with aftercare. [/quote]
