[quote=Anonymous]Another person who thinks OP is waaaayyyy over dramatic. My kid is 8. Kids have short memories, plus the part of their lives they remember are so short that they effectively are always having a "new normal". Like, they go to preschool for a couple years, and then then start at a new school for K for a fundamentally different experience than the fun of preschool. And then they have summer break for two months and K is like a lifetime ago. And then first grade. And then summer camps. And they go through all these 3 and 6 and 9 month periods that look totally different than the last 2 years - which is as far back as they remember. I don't see how 2nd grade (the year my son just finished) vs COVID is any different than 1st grade vs the summer after 1st grade. It's just a big chunk of time without structure versus a structured time. [/quote]
