[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] Oh, FFS. You wrote, "It will take years to catch up from this catastrophe. But private school kids don't have to deal with any of this. One day my child will have to compete with them for spots at schools, for jobs, etc." And she's 6? Excuse me, almost 7? You need to calm the eff down. You're seriously worried that in 15 years, your kid will lose out on a job to some private school kid because she had in-person school in first grade? Does it suck? Yes. Is it a crisis that will take your kid years to dig her way out of? No, it isn't. And that's not even mentioning that you aren't trying to supplement during this time. So you think it's a crisis that will affect your kid for decades, but can't be bothered to try to do anything about it? Got it. [/quote]
