[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]I’m sorry, but our country made its priorities very clear over the past 15 months and it’s apparent that children, particularly those with special needs/mental health issues/too young to benefit from virtual learning were absolute bottom of the barrel. Working moms a close second.

It’s not like the rest of the country was also hunkering at home along with the parents of young kids. I saw so many of my child free friends taking advantage of cheap flights, going out to restaurants, etc. while my 5 year old sat at home on an iPad trying to learn how to read and I tried to cling to my job. So sorry, but I think parents of young kids have a right to feel like we’ve been abandoned by society. We sacrificed the well-being of the young to by and large save the elderly (many of which I saw living their lives out and about on social media as if there wasn’t even a pandemic!). [/quote]

I just wanted to pull this part out because it is 100% true. Pretty much sums it up.[/quote]

Also, I was feeling like we had made some progress in terms of working moms and equality in the workplace pre-pandemic, but the pandemic just shattered that notion for me. We are nowhere close.[/quote]
