[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Parents have had to work these last two days. Teachers have not. [/quote] You chose to have kids. Deal with them.[/quote] Wouldn't this also be true of teachers who have kids? [/quote] They are. By staying home tomorrow and sending subs — oops, I mean “babysitters” — to deal with your kids tomorrow. If they’re lucky, and a sub can even be found. If not, they’ll just cram them into double sized “classes” where no one learns anything. But hey, they’ll be out of your hair, and really, that’s what’s important. :roll: [/quote] Do people really not get how many hourly and low wage parents send their kids to DCPS. Nearly 50 percent of our Title 1 elementary is at risk. I'm not the PP who said they'd prefer a delay but I also would have, but I also recognize my individual situation of being able to comfortably stay home with my kid, get more sleep, and still be able to work at flexible hours is not super common especially in this city. Not everyone who wants their kids in school hates their kids. I really promise you that. [/quote]
