[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just can't wrap my mind around you people who would rather have your kid getting disorganized, asychronous "education" in a cafeteria while almost certainly being exposed to several other kids with the virus while they're in there.  And you think this is better than having your kid get live virtual instruction for a week or two while safe at home?  Can you explain it to me?[/quote]

Simple, they don't want the responsibility.[/quote]

DP, and no, it’s mostly two things.  First, I have three elementary school kids and DH and I work full-time; between their ages and our schedules, “live virtual instruction” is stressful and worthless for them.

[b]Second, I don’t trust for a second that virtual will be for a week or two.  I literally cannot fathom how you (or anyone) can trust MCPS at this point to bring kids back in any kind of reasonable timeframe.[/b]

Third, I also don’t understand how people *still* do not get that plenty of kids are not “safe” at home.  Not from COVID, not from being left unsupervised, etc.  Are you that naive?[/quote]

Huh?  Are you kidding me?  Given how despite bad things are-- way worse than they've ever been-- they're still resisting letting kids go virtual at all, it doesn't make sense to me that people are serious worrying that it's going to drag on forever.  Is this just you guys having PTSD and learning the wrong lesson from their decisions last year?  Because if what you learned is "MCPS loves virtual" rather than "MCPS is poorly managed and caters to the parents who put up the biggest fuss," you're not paying attention.  It's obvious to anyone who's willing to look at the situation objectively that clearly they've massively overcorrected and have switched to be dead-set against virtual unless they get dragged into it kicking and screaming.

What are you talking about- MCPS is not resistant to virtual.  Based on the number of red schools today, I wouldn’t be surprised if everyone is virtual next week. Will you be happy then?  If they were resistant to virtual, they would have stick with the original line that they’d only go virtual if directed by the state. This was all I’ve big set up to justify moving to virtual.[/quote]
