[quote=Anonymous]OP, in our current situation I’d definitely say stay home. Pre-Covid-19, I think a good deciding question is does your child feel well enough to participate? Because there’s a big difference in a kid with allergies who’s really feeling crummy and a kid who has an itchy nose but otherwise feels fine. I am a para educator and I’ve worked in schools where parents sent in very sick children and then also didn’t want to pick them up. I have two kids myself so I can sympathize with how inconvenient it is to have to change plans for the day at the last minute, but sick kids belong at home. I worry about our prospects for the fall when I think about all the parents who argued with the nurse over picking up children who had fevers, vomited, etc. We really need a big shift in attitudes from families AND employers if we’re going to get back to school in person.
