[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This city is such an echo chamber bubble I almost cannot believe it. I feel sorry for anyone who doesn't get out enough or have ties with others, to realize what this place is. [/quote]

USA Today poll (hardly a dc bubble) revealed today that 59%of parents will not send their kids to school in the fall because of fears of illness. Another 30% will consider full distance learning.

I know everyone wants to get back. I know this is taking a toll. But no matter the hardship, most parents will sacrifice to keep their kids safe. I pray things improve or treatment comes, but until then, parents will put safety first. No one I know wants to take a flyer on this inflammatory syndrome. Hopefully we’ll get a better handle on that by September, but the USA Today Numbers reflect the fear parents have now.

That isn’t a bubble thing, just because it conflicts with your view. [/quote]

You just defined the bubble issue PP, and it doesn't seem like you're joking.

U.S. mass media has spoonfed its readers that 0.0X% kawasaki is UNSAFE for kids to go out anywhere.

Define "keep kids safe." That seems to be where the ideologies here greatly diverge.
And at what cost to their education, social skills, behavior, development, general/mental health?

Keep kids safe from what?  What does the COVID 19 total data show for kids under 18, with or without health comorbidities, in terms of severe symptoms, deaths, rare diseases?

Do you intend for your kids to hang out with your parents? If so, you don't want them at school.[/quote]

Are you saying that you don't want your kids educated at an in-person school in order for them to be able to hang out with elderly folks? [/quote]

Actually she's saying that grandparents should not isolate as an at-risk demographic, but instead hang out with kids. 
Thus she doesn't want kids intermingling with anyone at school. 
Thus all schools should remain in virtual mode.  
QED. [/quote]
