Yeah, but the problem is that the old restaurant that gave us food poisoning still has our credit card and keeps charging us for meals that they don't even deliver any more!  They just keep sending us hastily scribbled recipes and say it's our responsibility to cook for ourselves now.[/quote]

I like this analogy,

I honestly think the teachers on here taking hard line stances are trolls or otherwise not serious.  Any teacher, particularly of young elementary, who says with a straight face that they have a telework job is being obtuse.

Despite how much chaos it has caused for me, I do support schools being closed.  Just don't gaslight me to tell me that this is an acceptable situation, rather than the best of all of the terrible options that exist right now.[/quote]

+1. Also the loudest voices tend to be the ones heard.  There is one teacher on my local moms listserv who is constantly flooding it with anti-open posts but I get the sense that literally nothing will make her happy. She has a hysterical answer to anyone who dares to bring up a counter point.  I think she’s posted on here to as I recognize some of the same arguments.  Most of the teachers I know IRL have a more nuanced view of it and would go back if asked.[/quote]
