They are making my 3 year old about to start PK3 wear a mask when he isn’t in his classroom. That’s going to work real well I imagine

This right here is what will indirectly cause schools to shutdown again, when kids start testing positive and little Johnny runs home to tell his mom little Jenny has corona and never wore a mask in class that will stir all kinds of shite. I'm not debating the serious health implications on school aged children, I'm just anticipating parents to raise hell from both sides of the fence.

It's the hidden cost of the Corona overreaction, on top of the massive welfare payments, the temporary economic retraction, the interest on the welfare payments, the permanent ratcheting back of personal freedom, etc.: we are creating a cohort of kids whose primary education has consisted of watching Family Guy in the miasma of mom's Newport smoke. Hey, at least they'll be easy for President Michelle to control.

We’ve seen what a generation being raised by not telling kids what do to has worked out recently. There used to be methods of discipline when children didn’t do as they were told. If a teacher is incapable of getting a child to wear a mask do we really expect these people to educate our kids? I can assure you if my kid is told to wear a mask they will do it.

We should cower in the corner and change our lives because we fear the whims of the stupid masses.

It's not "we we we we"...it's superintendents, school boards, and school district's legal council. If there is enough public outcry then it's the governor. But never "we"

Most kids have gotten used to wearing masks by now.

You think a three year old is used to wearing a mask by now?

That is what the guy who mentioned the mask first in this thread was concerned about.

The children wearing masks thing lasted 1/2 day literally at the summer camp my kids are at. It’s simply impossible for young children to be forced into doing that.

Teacher's Unions do not serve teachers.

Teacher's serve the political agenda of the Teacher's unions.

They are the single biggest impediment to school's reopening because they must MAXIMIZE their agenda from this pandemic.

quote:

"The importance of children in transmitting the virus is difficult to establish, in particular given the number of asymptomatic case but there is some evidence that their role in transmitting the virus is limited. Precise details regarding paediatric transmission cannot be confirmed without widespread sero surveillance, but trends are emerging. Studies of multiple family clusters have revealed children were unlikely to be the index case, in Guangzhou, China, Israel and other countries. In the Netherlands, separate data from primary care and household studies suggests SARS-CoV-2 is mainly spread between adults and from adult family members to children. An epidemiological study where 1155 contacts of six COVID-19 positive cases in an Irish school were screened, there was no evidence of secondary transmission of COVID-19 from children to other children or adults. "


For those who do not know, The Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health, often referred to as the RCPCH, is the professional body for paediatricians in the United Kingdom. It is responsible for the postgraduate training of paediatricians and conducts the Membership of the Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health exams. They reviewed 93 worldwide studies regarding children and transmission.

Royal College

quote:

"When Science looked at reopening strategies from South Africa to Finland to Israel, some encouraging patterns emerged. Together, they suggest a combination of keeping student groups small and requiring masks and some social distancing helps keep schools and communities safe, and that younger children rarely spread the virus to one another or bring it home.

“Outbreaks in schools are inevitable,” says Otto Helve, a pediatric infectious disease specialist at the Finnish Institute for Health and Welfare. “But there is good news.” So far, with some changes to schools’ daily routines, he says, the benefits of attending school seem to outweigh the risks—at least where community infection rates are low and officials are standing by to identify and isolate cases and close contacts."

My kids hate them. Soon as we get out of stores that require them, they rip it off their faces...

there is no doubt at all. you simply cannot please everyone. and in the day of social media, those who bark loudest....usually get their desired result. a pitiful way of making decisions.

When i got this email, i was very confused because the School Board Member for my district actually called me back about this just a week ago. He had just told me that K-12 (in Jefferson Parish) were going to either virtual 100%, or to TWO days per week on campus and THREE days per week virtual.

What I gather is that these people are incapable of making decisions.
