[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DD is a rising senior in a district that is going 100% virtual. I think it’s quite likely it will remain virtual all year. So DD will have missed the last quarter of her junior year and her entire senior year - the most significant parts of HS. If this happened at 32, it would be no biggie. But Junior and Senior years of HS! These are some of the most fun and memory making years in life! Yes, I realize that people have gone through worse, but still. My heart is just so heavy that she will be missing out on a very significant time of life. [/quote] Don't turn into the parents of 2020's. I have a 2021, too, and it's hard. And our kids have it uniquely hard, just like the 2020's had it uniquely hard, and the 2022's have it uniquely hard and the 2023's have it uniquely hard... Too many 2020 parents thought their situation and their kids situation was the only challenging situation. It wasn't. Ours isn't either. Our kids will make it through, and they'll help set the standards for the classes that come behind them so that they still do get to experience a lot of the joys and general experiences of being a senior. Support the kids with the reality we're all in, and help them through it.[/quote]
