No. You can't say that to excuse constant bad behavior.

It's kind of hard to take them at face value after this year.
I’m not sure I blame them for not wanting to go in before there was a vaccine. I didn’t want to go to my office either and I wasn’t forced to. We could have offered hazard pay to essential workers but we mostly didn’t - just told people to suck it up and go in. The pandemic was an unprecedented situation
Even though every doctor in America said it was safe to reopen schools, even without a vaccine? Even though children have a human right to an education, which they've been effectively been denied for the past year? Even though doctors and nurses and daycare workers and the pizza delivery guy and teachers at private schools and teachers at public schools outside the DMV and grocery store workers never stopped going to the office? I dont think any of them got hazard pay. Many had to wait to get vaccinated so that teachers who werent even going to work got vaccinated before them.
+1000. I will never let this happen to my child again- it was incredibly harmful to them.

Actually, one of the few silver linings to DL has been avoiding the Lord of the Flies that is the MS environment in DCPS.

Students will not be allowed to switch back and forth between virtual and in-person.

I will be interested to know how many choose the virtual academy due to COVID (high risk students and family members, etc) vs. other reasons (desire to avoid social interactions due to uncontrolled anxiety, older students' wish to juggle school and work schedules, attempts to escape from bullying that took place in person).
Unfortunately, I believe this is a thing. I was talking to the mom of my MS child's friend, and her daughter was thrilled with remote learning. They were dealing with anxiety and some friend and bullying issues before the pandemic. Most parents and MS children we know desperately want schools to reopen, but I think some are using the pandemic as a cover to isolate and avoid social interactions. It seems like a bad idea that will have negative implications down the line though.

I have wondered if she's a MAGA troll that's just here to make mothers feel like they need to stay in the home.
Isn't it so weird that she's screaming about the patriarchy in order to keep women home
Ahem the women who whine on here are all working from home. Well established that DCUM is made up of white, white collar professionals in ward 3. You all only use people of color and essential workers when you want to show off how woke you are but still don’t listen to people of color.
Never said women should stay home - women should do what they want. That is the point of feminism. But women should also expect and demand their partners do the same amount of work they do - emotional, physical, home, kids etc
I’m pointing out that your huzzzbamds are doing their part of the deal and somehow that means my marriage is bad?
So much projection.
Word salad poster continues to spout incomprehensible word salad, I guess.
She really needs everyone to be her stereotype in order to make her arguments. If they are not her stereotype she pretends their stories aren't real. Like I said, I think she's struggling heavily with cognitive dissonance. It's like a Trumper.

bull. somehow teachers *everywhere* except in Democratic union dominated state public schools managed to return. Private schools and catholic schools were open everywhere. it was a political choice to stay closed and prioritize politically influential adults over kids and families.
This.

Fully agree and curious too about the numbers
I wonder how many families now know they could ask for this and will.
