[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thinking about it, I think part of the answer is that at heart many people want to pull their kids out of school because they want absolute rigid control over all aspects of their children's lives, and simultaneously they don't care about educational outcomes for other kids. They don't want their own kids to have an experience that isn't totally mediated by them. The pandemic lets them put that into action. Have you ever read the stories of homeschool recovery online? They are heartfelt and sometimes very disturbing stories from adults reflecting back on their homeschooling childhood. In ten years, we are going to see the same things about these DL years.[/quote] I don't feel that way. I'm a terrible teacher. I want my kids to go back to school. I want them taught by someone better at it than I am. But I'm not going to send them back until we get a handle on this pandemic. That's more important to me than having my kids in school.[/quote]
