[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Personally I wouldn’t, schools will be a vector of disease spread. There is no way around it. One less year of socialization to have a lifetime with your kid (see weddings, grandkids, etc) would be worth it [/quote] I think this is a slippery slope. What guarantee do you have that it's going to be just one year?[/quote] What guarantee? Do you have a crystal ball, PP?? We have to act on the knowledge we have now and our comfort with taking risks wrt this virus. My spouse has asthma, and no, we are not sending our middle schooler back to her overcrowded middle school (trailers, extremely packed halls, etc.) I'll homeschool if I must, but so far, the district has not decided what they are going to do. Even if this takes 4 years, so what? It's better than losing your life, no? My kid has a good 75 or 80 years ahead of her, and DH has another 40 at least. No way do we want to risk all those years. You deal with what you have to. If you want to risk your life, go ahead, but I'm not risking mine or my family's lives. [/quote]
