[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You do you. But you can’t tell others how to feel. While well aware of what’s going on in the country which does help with perspective, seniors have a right to feel their [b]loss[/b] too. [/quote]

What are they really losing? They're still graduating. They're still going to get to get their diplomas and go on to college/jobs. They have the technology to stay in touch with friends. They're only losing out on the symbolic ceremonies.[/quote]

Look, none of these kids knew that their last day of high school was going to be that day in March. They still have stuff in their lockers. It's a loss. Everyone of them is going to process this a little differently. [/quote]

It's not a loss in the least compared to the 26 million people who lost their jobs or to the 56,000 people who lost family members, colleagues, neighbors, and friends to COVID-19. I'm really sorry, but I have very little sympathy for the seniors right now. I am furloughed until at least June. Several of my friends had to shut down their businesses that they worked so hard to build. They hope they can reopen someday. I have several family members who are high-risk, including my mom who is a cancer survivor and my grandfather who is 91 and lives by himself 12 hours from the rest of his family. I have much bigger things to worry about than HS seniors not having their special events. [/quote]

Then go worry about them, get the hell off this forum, and leave the damn kids alone.[/quote]

AND ANOTHER THING (pp here). You're not that special. Lots of us are out of work, losing our businesses, worried about family members have perhaps lost family members. Including the high school seniors. LET. THE KIDS. HAVE THEIR GRIEF. [/quote]
+1 Perhaps the PP who is not worried about the kids loss can go throw her own senior pictures and any other graduation memories down the trash while she is at it.[/quote]
