for teenagers alcohol and drug use will begin to trend higher. You watch more teenagers will begin to ignore zoom classroom and just hang out with their friends. They should at least try to get the kids to practice sports in the afternoon at school. Give them something to do and a chance to hang out with their friends.
The missing portion is what are they going to do about grades. If it's all online, not sure how you can keep honesty. But if you pass/fail or grade protect them (not sure how you can grade protect without a baseline), yeah kids are smart...the non-honors/AP group of teenagers will check out. The other question is how much learning is going to actually be live.
The elementary school students are so f----, particularly ESL families. You're looking at a loss of over a year in language and math skills.

The abrupt switch to remote learning wiped out academic gains for many students in America, and widened racial and economic gaps. Catching up in the fall won’t be easy.

Guidelines from the American Academy of Pediatrics encourage “having students physically present in school.” Dr. Sean O’Leary, an author of that advice, explains why.
Ha.. when i first read that I was thinking the same for the parents. Not easy being home with kids all day while trying to work. God knows I'm drinking more now.

So how does that work for parents that have to go to work but have younger kids who shouldn't be home by themselves.
Other countries are sending their kids back to school.
But half of our country wants to hide out in their basement.

I am god on judgements. And if you 2 fall into the risk category stay home and keep your kid home. Don't advocate for the rest of us to have to do the same as you feel you need to do.

God? Nope. But I am certainly a good judge of reading data and seeing who is at risk.
And positive cases have gone up rapidly and yet we are not seeing the corresponding spike in deaths that we say early on.
The median age of those dying is still around 80. So we know who is at risk and who isn't.
We know that if you are under 17 your risk is well under the flu. Up until 55 or so you are slightly elevated risk vs the flu. 80 plus AND with issues, you have a large risk factor.
A sane strategy would be to devise a plan built around known risk factors vs pretending everything needs to be shut down and the reporting implying everyone is at risk when that is not the case.
Can you remind me where I was advocating this? Because I never did. I stated that temperature checks at school entrance won't work because of logistical reasons. I never said for anyone to keep their kid home. Go fuck yourself

it's pretty shitty to accuse someone whose kid is high risk of advocating for everyone else to have to suffer. This sucks for my son having to be extra careful while everyone else is out having fun. I would never wish that on other people, and it pissed me off that you accused me of doing so. But thanks for realizing you had me confused with someone else
And all this on the same day a German study released in Saxony (which returned to school with full class sizes and local outbreaks in progress) says schools are not a major vector of transmission and kids may even serve as a break on the infection.

German study finds no evidence coronavirus spreads in schools
Schools do not play a major role in spreading the coronavirus, according to the results of a German study released on Monday. The study, the largest carried out on schoolchildren and teachers in Germany, found traces of the virus in fewer than 1 per cent of teachers and children. Scientists from...
Which is why home schooling is best for your family. But give parents some options as it isn't best for other families. I know about 10 teachers, about 6 want to go back, 4 don't. So guess who teaches at the school, and who remotely teaches. Give options to both the parents and the teachers.
My kid just finished high school health class at home in 4 weeks. Got an A. Not sure though how much she learned because she would be learning while watching tv. Hey, maybe she is a great multitasker. Having said that I'd prefer that she gets some actual class time in as well.

It's really easy to say this won't work and that won't work without actually trying to make it work. I'm sure it will work with help of many parent volunteers who rather make it work than stay home with kids for another 6 month.
