[quote=Anonymous]True, if kids are not at school in-person they will not receive the socialization benefits that school provides. But any child from a loving family who can provide for him/her will, in turn, get the benefit of more family time than they otherwise would have (and most of us have suffered from a lack of family time in our hectic culture). So when you weigh added family time, plus learning important lessons about self-sacrifice for the common good, plus the personal and public health benefits of distance learning, against the "socialization" benefits of school, I don't see how you can possibly argue that kids whose parents are able to stay home with them possibly should be in in-person school this fall. Particularly if we all stay home for a while this will enable the kids go go to school in a "normal" environment much more quickly. [/quote]
