Schools are required to provide a safe environment for children. So, if my child only goes to school and comes home to a safe environment and gets infected because he is with a group of unmasked students, I sue the school, the state and the parents for not providing a safe environment for my child.

Children will NOT keep their masks on in school, and that is fact. Teachers cannot be understood and children's replies cannot be understood when wearing masks. Sure, that is a small imposition IF/IF masks save lives. But, so far the CDC does not prove that masks (paper or cloth that folks are wearing) does much good. The gov. is well known for making mistakes in their judgement. I would rather make life choices for myself and my family, rather than depending on their often biased thinking demands.

Parents or anyone else do not have the right to hurt their children or should we act like the Taliban, why stop at Covid, why not cut the girls as well? There is no reason why children can’t wear n95 masks (child size). I absolutely support the right of parents but it stops when they hurt and not protect their children, and possibly endangering other children.

Yes, when the topic is the understanding of the virology and epidemiology of a COVID pandemic and the value of masks for both the vaccinated and unvaccinated, adults and children, I AM going to insult 90+% of not only parents, but all adults as well. It is simply NOT a decision that should be left to either amateurs or politicians.

BTW, It's hardly an "insult". If you tell me I don't have the expertise to land an F-16 on the deck of an aircraft carrier, are you insulting me?

and as a to: "My child has a fever of 103. Hello, congressman. What should I do?"---How about "Hello, pediatrician, what should I do"?

I was surprised to find no articles reporting that masks do not help. None said masks were 100% effective but I did not notice any that said masks were 10)% ineffective.

You apparently did not search the internet with an appropriate phrase for that...try using face masks are useless and you will find what you missed!
