[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kids' virtual learning experience is better than what hybrid/concurrent instruction will be. The default is in person? OK. When they go back to fully in person, my student will return if it is safe (I'm mostly concerned about spread on the buses and at lunch). I see no point to sending them back for 2 days/week of concurrent instruction. [b]It doesn't solve any problem I have[/b].[/quote] AH, and therein lies the rub. (bolded) You see, PP, some of us are desperate to get our kids back to school to solve problems THEY have. It is not about us, the parents. If you don't see any point to having your kids in a classroom, even a modified situation, so that they can interact with peers and adults outside the home, plus enjoy some of the million nuances a day we all benefit from in human interaction, I don't know what to tell you. Except that I feel very, very sorry for your kids.[/quote] Works both ways. My kids don't miss the troublemakers in class that bully, have obvious anger issues, can't follow simple directions in high school, and disruptive, and distract the kids from actually learning. Maybe if their parents addresses their kids issues, instead of heading off to their high paid job to escape, to pay for a house they can't afford, people would feel differently -- including teachers. Your kids need your positive attention, not to bring the fighting ways they see at home to the school. I know I speak of a particular FCPS population here, but it is real, and it is brutal, and I am tired of hearing from the whiny parents who don't want to parent. [/quote] Then you have a completely different problem. And teaching your kids to hide at home on DL is not the solution.[/quote]
