[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a third grader, and I think it affected their age group the most. He was in Preschool and then kindergarten during the lockdowns. I think the most long-term damage is kids who are currently 9 and 10 years old.[/quote]

My friends who had kids in this age group kept their kids in preschool. Many preschools also have kindergarten. Their kids seem mostly just fine.

I think parents who had resources turned out ok while parents who struggled with multiple kids at home while trying to juggle work may have suffered the most.

I have heard middle school kids who never finished algebra and not adequate math learning were poorly prepared for high school. Others will say their kids suffered social development for kids who were 4-5.

I had a child in preschool and two in elementary. I don’t work so it was relatively easy to juggle elementary kids’ virtual learning. I ordered a lot of books and toys online. My kids played a lot of outside sports. Most people we know were out and about at least outdoors. It isn’t like we were all locked inside our homes for 2 years. [/quote]
