I cringe when I see the nonsense they are doing in schools. They will damage this generation for years to come. Their psychological development is being tampered with.
I am fortunate to be in a Catholic school. We have been in person all year. Thank God we have been fine. Only two kids had to do virtual learning for a short period of time. The kids are masked, but I try to give frequent breaks. Theyre spaced out but manage to play together safely. I cant wait til rhis is over.
I only know five kids that got the Rona. Two were very young, felt sick, whined a bit, took a nap and were basically better later that same day. Three were older and had what looked like nothing more than a cold for a couple of days.
This whole thing has been the best advertisement for homeschooling I've ever seen. Torturing little kids with masks should be illegal.
Well I disagree. That seems to be a rather judgmental remark. Their desks are spaced out, but they have time for interaction and are able to enjoy each other. I have much about which to feel happy because, although this situation isn't ideal, they are coming to school. They are seeing their friends. There is interaction. The learning environment is strong and they've made great progress and are where they should be academically considering they were learning from home for 12 weeks last year. They are proud of their accomplishments this year, and I am of them.
Is this ideal? Of course it isn't. I dont like this, but I love teaching and seeing my kiddos in person. This is much better than the virtual or hybrid alternative. We have had dozens of public school students come to us because they are fed up with virtual learning and hybrid learning. We are careful but you would not consider our school to look like prison.
Good for you! You are indeed blessed compared to many. There is an early childhood center (3-5 yrs, I believe) near me that closed entirely from March last year, but briefly reopened in November ... with the care providers wearing spacesuits! The poor kids were running away from them, and they closed again because nobody--- neither teachers, parents or kids--- could stand the inhuman rules.

Yep, my youngest had it (18 months) and was basically a runny nose and slight fever that all went away on their own in about 4 hours.
If the kids are masked and spaced out, you have nothing to be happy about or feel fortunate about.

It's psychological abuse period. The mask, the restrictions all of it. No excuse for it to start with so being happy is giving in to it.

Same thing going on in my granddaughter's Christian school.
Please tell me they dont stand in “social distance” lines and study in plastic walled desks. Some schools look worse than prisions.
