[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A virtual option at every school (as has been repeatedly expressed throughout this thread) hurts the majority of children. Resources are not infinite. What Becky wants is to harm the majority of students. That's really not ok. If Becky truly wanted something that did not harm other children, she'd probably get more support. As it is, people should vehemently oppose a virtual option at all schools.[/quote] More resources could be poured into public education to allow a virtual option for all who want it, but doing it on a per school basis is too inefficient. [/quote] But you know what would happen? The virtual option would be flooded with kids who live in W 7 and 8, the same ones whose parents refused to send them to even one day of in person school last year, and many of whom disappeared entirely throughout the school year. THAT is why Bowser doesn't want to do it. These kids are the ones who need in person school far more than any others. [/quote] Omg. This REEKS of paternalism and is blatantly racist. There are plenty of families you’d like to decide for making the best decisions they can for their kids. Just because they live in a demographically low income ward theh don’t get to choose? I said it before and I’ll say it again. Fools, assholes (now including racists and people who will name someone’s actual name and then say what she wants is to hurt kids or shut schools down). Btw one of the posters on here is a ward 5 mom who did not stop posting on every social media page (community, hers, pool, school, etc) about her positions and also kept using the “think of the poor ward 8 kids” and got her ass handed to her by just about every person of color who saw her posts. [/quote] I don't know - isn't the entire requirement to send your kids to school reeking of paternalism? Should we do away with that as well?[/quote]
