[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Good friends of ours on Capitol Hill with 3 kids, ages 7-11, went to stay with grandparents in Florida over winter break and did not return. They stayed to send the kids to 5-day/week schools in FL vs. 100% DL here in DC. The parents, Democrats, have never struck me as abject, mouthbreathing, Trump sycophant imbeciles. They're just parents trying to do the right thing by their children, since the two younger kids weren't doing well with DL. The bright 2nd grader could barely read. Nobody in the family has had Covid and I'm told that the kids have thrived in FL, making great strides to catch up academically, socially and emotionally.[/quote] Couple of observations. First, no one in the family of 5 got COVID so clearly there is no risk of anyone getting COVID. Makes perfect sense. Public health decisions should totally be made like that! Second, the 2nd grader wasn't bright if they could barely read. That's not a shot at the kid or the parents, but simply an observation based on the facts you provided. You didn't say K or even 1st; you said 2nd grade. Unless the parents were not reading to their kids a "bright" 2nd grader should be able to read. I'm glad they are happy. But your desperation to find anecdotal examples to fit your narrative doesn't work. [/quote]
