[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We're keeping our kids at home because we feel that the in-school operations are unsafe.  If we feel that way for our kids then I can COMPLETELY understand why teachers feel that way for themselves.  The kids who have gone back already are either 1) the kids whose moms want them out of the house because they are hellions, or 2) the kids who have special needs or need extra support.  I think most of the kids are in the #1 category.  No way do I want our kids in that mix and, again, I can completely understand why teachers would want to avoid them.  I would, too.[/quote]

+1 Our kids have taken a look at who is in the classrooms and there is absolutely no way that our kids want to be there with them. [/quote]

I seriously can’t even imagine who would be keeping their kids virtual by choice right now unless they are at high risk of Covid complications. Maybe PPs have middle or high school aged kids and virtual works for them. My ES kids just went back and they are like different people now (for the better). I assure you that most of the kids in our ES are not “behavior problems”.[/quote]

Hi, nice to meet you. Parent of a diligent, bright gen ed autistic kid who loves school and is doing incredibly well virtual. I want to send my child back but the reality is that they are so rigid that the constant push pull of hybrid would spike their anxiety and make it untenable.

I want normal so bad. Believe me. But keeping my kid home the rest of the year and pursuing other safe social opportunities is a better choice for them.

I am NOT the only special needs parent in this category at all. If I had a neurotypical kid maybe it would be different, but I don’t and it isn’t.
