[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]On Monday, my son's teacher thanked her 4th grade students who continued to wear masks. Later in the day, she lectured and guilted the maskless. One of the kids felt bad and put a mask on, insisting he wanted to wear it but his parents decided not. Needless to say, my son came home pleading with me to NOT sign the waiver (even though he recently had covid and has antibodies).[/quote] I hope that teacher is fired. If she has a problem with the decision she should direct her complaints to the diocese- not guilt trip a bunch of nine year olds.[/quote] You've had him tested for antibodies to know this? Because up to 33% of infections produce no lasting antibodies.[/quote] PP here -- We really like his teacher and my son does not want to upset her by going maskless. The teacher is clearly fearful of catching Covid (hence the lecture) and apparently believes the ill-fitting masks are protecting everyone. Clearly they are not as studies prove, as my son caught Covid during holiday break, most likely from that classroom (since we did not go anywhere else). At best, the masks are only catching some sneezes and spittle. Our son's pediatrician wrote an order for antibody test so hopefully that test will prevent him from having to quarantine if he eventually opts to go maskless. The school's stricter mandatory quarantine policies are the prime reason for many parents not signing the mask waiver.[/quote] Did you attend Mass? He may have contracted it there? FWIW, many of you are claiming children are not wearing masks properly and that is not something I am seeing in our school. Please stop projecting. The Diocese gave you a choice for your students: wear a mask or don’t wear a mask. Name calling and chiding those who mask their children is not okay (looking at you tin foil hat, rag, diaper, Etsy, bad mom posters). Model Christian behavior and name calling is not one. Your children are watching and listening.[/quote]
