[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Of course school is not daycare, but until employers are more flexible with parents, the less random half days and middle of the week days off children have the better for the entire community.[/quote] Yes, the U.S. needs to provide a better social safety net, including reliable, affordable childcare for families that need it. But we need to stop demanding that teachers step in every time society fails. Tell Arlington County to provide camps. Work with your neighbors to take turns dealing with days when school is closed. Stop telling teachers to babysit your kids. [/quote] Okay no one is asking teachers to step in and do more. Just maintain the current hour of EDUCATION not babysitting. I don’t want cams, I want lessons and substance.[/quote]
