[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I support teachers and choice. As long as their is a DL option while we’re in a pandemic, then that’s fine with me.[/quote] Wow. Do you realize how long it will be a "pandemic"? So DL well into 2021 for you? [/quote] How about if we put it another way: will you still be stomping and complaining in Fall of 2021 about the changes we've all had to make to our lives because of the pandemic?[/quote] If kids are not in school in Fall 2021, I will be horrified, yes. "Stomping and complaining" is such a weird way to phrase it. I'm kind of concluding that you don't understand what this is all about - you honestly believe that it's just a nice extra for society to provide education to its children? And that it's "stomping and complaining" to be horrified that the powers that be are apparently perfectly fine with no school indefinitely now? I'm surprised, but I guess I shouldn't be. [b]We're seeing a progressive decay of all public goods, as they get shifted from "things society provides because they're good for everyone" to "you're on your own here, kid, everyone has to look out for their own self interests." I saw this happen with college tuition, but I never dreamed I would see it happen so rapidly with elementary school. SMH. [/b] [/quote] I agree with all of this, and would like to add that to me (as a liberal from Europe) it is particularly shocking to see this process now being driven and this attitude be displayed by American liberals. I always thought the "you are on your own" mentality was a Republican thing. Now it's liberals screaming "nobody owes you free childcare!" and "what's the big deal about having to homeschool your kids!". SMH indeed.[/quote] +1[/quote]
