We can all split up the schools, gather and yell “For Shame!” at the empty buildings.

Go troll someplace else. I want my child in school for in person learning. This is too important.

As long as you get what you want

Yall need to give it up for real. You think schools are going to make dramatic shifts with four weeks left in the school year.

Get.Over.It.

I’m never going to get over the way we casually threw away a mainstay of public support for families and children, all in supposedly liberal cities and states, because teacher’s unions are politically powerful.

Neither am I. I’m so mad. I used to be a democrat... this has really moved the political needle for me...

A lot of the charters don’t have unionized teachers.
You are becoming a Republican over schools that did not open? Sounds like the Central Park liberal calling the cops on the black man. You all are funny.
Again, everyone seems to miss the point that there are a lot of families in the district not ready for in person. Step out of your white bubble.

People who don't feel ready for in-person shouldn't get to control what happens to my kids.

And yet white supremacy controls what happens to me and people who look like me.

"White supremacy"??? Take a look at the skin color of this city's leaders -- mayor, schools chancellors, most principals. Not a lot of white there.

I know it must be fun when you're learned some new "anti-racism" buzzwords to deploy them on threads like this, but you're not proving the point you think you are. The kids hurt the most by school closures nationwide aren't the white ones.

Well maybe now you can see how important teachers are. And how your children suffer when DCPS treats teachers poorly. It's sad that children are paying the price but I don't expect any teachers to be martyrs. And yes, they are working. At a lower quality but you can't say they are just eating bons bons at home not teaching. Unless you're one of the poor souls who have a teacher who was never good to begin with.

I agree; DC's school response to the pandemic is truly laden with misogyny.

And I think some of those are technically CARES students. But the vast majority of students have never even been offered a CARES spot.

I get tired of the “it’s a pandemic” explanation because it only gets applied to school closures.

It’s a pandemic, but I still have to work for a living in order to pay my bills.

It’s a pandemic, but that doesn’t magically mean there are daycare slots available for kids who can’t go to school, or that I can magically afford a nanny.

It’s a pandemic, but that doesn’t mean people can’t go eat indoors at restaurants, fly on airplanes, go to sporting events, etc.

The pandemic explanation only applies to schools. The “suck it up” attitude only applies to working parents who rely on schools for childcare (and especially working moms). I can’t complain about the fact that I’ve had to scale back at work to care for my 4 yr old, while languishing on waitlists for four different daycares, because “it’s a pandemic!” But my childless neighbors have traveled all over the country, eat out at restaurants three days a week, and gather with friends whenever they want, even before they were vaccinated.

Apparently it’s more like a mom-demic or, at best, a parent-demic. We are expected to make our sacrifice and shut up about it, but no one else has to.

The wining from adults is just extraordinary.
