[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As much as I hate the cold, I plan on holding more lessons outside if kids are unmasked in my class. Please send your kids with masks and quality outerwear, just in case! I know it sounds extreme, but I have to take care of myself (cancer survivor) and my elderly mother. [/quote] Threatening to abuse our children by freezing them in the cold over this is really sick. You should not be around kids.[/quote] Then. Keep. Them. Home. Problem solved. How frigging DARE you say that to a cancer survivor trying to protect her elderly mother, you entitled witch.[/quote] I am the teacher who posted this. I am the cancer survivor and parent to two school age children. I do not feel comfortable teaching unmasked students. I don’t see how some people cannot have empathy. I feel like too many in our society think only about “Me, Myself and I”. I taught hybrid last year in a mask. I am also teaching this year. Do any of you know hard it is to teach in a mask. It is one thing to have to wear one for a meeting here or there, or to go to the store. Teachers have had to put up with so much during the pandemic. Diocesan teachers supppied in-person teaching last year. We bent over backwards. Our school has 30 kids per class. Our admin had to find extra space in the bulding to separate kids. We gave up lunch periods, planning periods “for the kids”. Now, when we just want to feel safer during this surge, the true colors of many families are showing. The Bishop’s letter just made it easier for me to quit my job. I will probably push throufh till the end of this school year “for the kids”. [/quote] Empty threat on anonymous mommy board. Sad. Doubt you are even a real teacher. If you are, please just go get a union job with the county. You'll be much happier... Anyways, all teachers were at our school today and almost every kid had smiling mask-free faces. So, yeah, enough of the fake outrage and willingness to make children suffer. ;)[/quote] What school, PP?[/quote] Yes, which school? And are there openings? Also, is there a list of schools that are mask-optional for vaccinated students? I for one would love to know. I'd like to have a choice whether or not I can send my healthy, vaccinated child to school without a mask. This area is so polarized. There is no common sense - only LWNJ and RWNJ - apparently. Or maybe not, given the number of views and varied responses - it seems like there is a critical mass of rational adults who just want mask-wearing optional for their healthy, vaccinated children...[/quote]
