[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Thank you for the responses and advice. Daughter is 6, almost 7. She hates school so much that I doubt a tutor or supplementing will help more than harm. I can barely get her to engage during school hours. She’s generally not happy but we try to have family fun when we can. I will be sending her to summer camp, so she’ll get some socializing and fun there, hopefully. So that’s something to look forward to? If school doesn’t open in the fall I will look into a local pod or something.[/quote] Then, stop complaining. You will not try to supplement and justified it so she will fall behind.[/quote] Ignore this nasty PP. OP, you are of course sensible; it's only on DCUM that people pretend this travesty of remote education for young children is anything approaching adequate. I don't understand why people delude themselves into believing their seven-year-olds are learning anything from DL, but they are invested in the fantasy so whatever. My suggestion with your DD at this age is to homeschool rather than supplement. You will spend the same amount of time and you won't have the hours of wasted time on a video. Your DD won't learn to resent education the same way. She too is being sensible, incidentally, of course this is all wildly developmentally inappropriate. Just walk away from the current mess and homeschool. It is a more rational response. [/quote]
