[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We got sour elementary schedule; 8:30-3:15!!! How are parents supposed to work and support the kids? I was hoping it would be a structured half day and less structured other half to make this challenging situation a little easier.....[/quote]

You are not - the kids are supposed to learn to be independent and take responsibility for their learning.  
I am helping facilitate distance learning.  I am setting alarms, setting up a space for them, book marking sites with saved passwords.   
I will make lunch and snack and pack it in their lunchbox like I did when they were in person.  [/quote]
This is so sad. 
The one time in life when you’ll actually be able to be active in your child’s education & you are showing them off. 
I’m always unclear what jobs the DCUM types have where they are actively in meetings or calls all day...
I’m married to a lawyer & was a consultant myself, & now run my own business. Still can’t relate to the on all day jobs of this crew. Guess you all are all just big deals. [/quote]

“all day jobs”? are you joking?

my job is flexible, but not flexible enough that I can be interrupted 5x/day to make sure my kid logs on to the computer. [/quote]

Why on earth do you think you have to do that? An 8-year old can do this. Give your kid some credit. Will there be a glitch on occasion, yes. But if you set him up to think it is your job to make sure he is logged on, then it will become your job to do do. Start as you mean to go on![/quote]

Not all kids will be that compliant. I'm hopeful my 8 year old will figure it out, but I'm doubtful.  And of course, it's way too much to expect for kids even younger than him. [/quote]
