[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In addition this survey was done in the fall of 2021. When the pandemic was not long over.

That said I have 4 teen girls who were middle school and high school in 2020 when schools shut. Still dealing with the aftermath of the (long over?) pandemic and the social repercussions. They are like puppies who never met another dog and lost all their social cues. Coming back but still slightly feral. [/quote]
Huh? You have 4 teenagers in your family who couldn't manage not going to school for a year and suffered 'social repercussions' because of that? Do you live on a deserted island? :roll: [/quote]

What is your problem?  To think think there were no repercussions from schools closing (two in DCPS who had zero in person school for over 1 year) and a mayor who banned all sports for kids their age-- which included private teams and a public which completely shut down. And then when school came back-- oh hell no. Hot mess.  We weren't in Florida. We were in DC where people still wear masks while walking outside by themselves. Where parents desperately tried to get out of public schools to get into private because there was hope kids could go in person and the mayor fought hard to close schools too!  Believe me for us the pandemic is over. Way way over. But the impact is lasts.

Yes they missed out on randomly very formative years in school. Teens are a mess now. I mean you can ignore it if you want. [/quote]
