If your waiting for a vaccine to live life again you might be waiting for a long time. Still waiting for HIV ,which Dr Fauci leads, since 1986.
The danger in in opening schools is to the at risk teachers. If you are a teacher with health issues, might be a good time to consider retiring. |

All of us went through this when our kids were small, they were germ factories then and it’s not going to work now. Which one of you would want to see your grandkids forced back into classrooms by someone who’s agenda isn’t their education.
Think ahead now how you are going to feel to the moment you find out one of your grandkid has passed. And add to it it was because some clown who doesn’t know what he is doing made them do it. They are not ready for this and need one more semester of on-line Class rooms and alternative learning. Many states opened too early, how’d that go? |

Children are falling behind, Parents can only do so much, after all teaching is not their profession. Some students just don’t do well with online classes.
If we choose to not open this generation May have many issues down the road. Plus think of how many children rely on their meals while they’re in school. Sometimes there’s just no food at their home. Also think about the uptick in abuse from children being at home 24/7. We could be doing children a great harm by not opening up the schoolS

I was always so fearful of getting sick when I taught (compromised lungs). There was always someone sick in the room, coughing, sneezing, and because there wasn't windows that opened in our school, all the air was recycled. They said the air was filtered, but all of us always got sick many times a year. I can't imagine ever wanting to go back to teaching in those circumstances with a deadly virus floating around.

NO not the way this gov is doing it. You have to test everyday, plenty of hand washing stations, 12 kids per classroom, masks mandatory for everyone, temp checks every morning and afternoon. Do it right and you can do it, wrong and end up like the church camp in Missouri, 84 sick people.

I think a person's answer will depend if they have any skin in the game. For me, it's homeschool till the Vaccination is released and we find out that it works. Nobody is going to die from staying home for a while longer. Toughen up Buttercups! Too many things have to go perfectly for school to work out properly. Not willing to risk anyone for $$ Money $$. As long as everyone is alive all feeding and parenting issues can be figured out. |

The OP'S question was not based on science.
What does Be Better mean exactly? |

It’s all about childcare and to get people back to work. In today’s conditions who would be willing to leave the BUBBLE and assist taking care of grandchildren so parents could go back to work. And assist in home schooling. I rather doubt it.

I am "up North" for the summer. Here, there is zero social distancing by kids. They are playing football, basketball, soccer, softball, etc. There is little league baseball going on. The beach is wall to wall kids, all about 3" apart. For the kids, there is absolutely nothing to be gained by not reopening schools. The issue is will teachers and staff be safe?
Some parents can't go to work if their kids are not in school. I have heard child psychologists talk about how destructive it is for kids not to have a school environment. We have to try to find ways to mitigate the risk for teachers, but go ahead with reopening. We have no idea when and how this pandemic will end. We can't stay closed forever. |

In states with increasing cases and hospitalizations, kids clearly shouldn't be doing those things. |

Wearing a mask has - or should - have nothing to do with being a free country. It is about public health, the common good and protecting others, and others protecting us. |

The schools need to be open. Life is not safe. Present the facts the opportunity and the choice to go or not. If the stay at homes can do the assignment. Grade and pass fail as the case may be. If the stay at home parent can help with instructions great if not too bad. Sink or swim. Kinda cold I know. Life isn’t easy.
