[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, are you a parent? If not, you can’t understand the impact that being out of school is having on kids of all ages. For a majority of us, it is NOT about child care. Some kids are doing fine with virtual school or homeschool, but many are getting depressed and regressing in their learning. Parents can’t fill those needs for all kids. [/quote] This. As a parent, I always focus on my kids' education, socialization, exercise, etc. But now I have to do basically ALL the socialization (because screen school is a poor proxy) and socialization around a full day of Zoom school, which is developmentally inappropriate for my young ES kids. Plus I have to fill in educational gaps from DL on top of the educational gaps in our districts' curriculum normally. I'm a parent, so yes, I'll do it. But it's basically the WORST of the public schools mixed with the WORST of homeschooling.[/quote]
