Quick question: If your district waivers get approved for the children to do hybrid learning? Will you allow your children to attend back to school?
My kids will not be going back in person this school year. Virtual learning has been going quite well for them.
I’m happy for you and your kids that it’s been going well for them.
@momma_of_1, thank you! It is such a relief cause we did not know what to expect
@prettygirlrock1214surromom, yes I know. This pandemic had forced us to do drastic changes.
My children aren't old enough for school but Lynnie could have started Pre-K. Since I'm pregnant I really didn't want to chance getting Covid although we only have like 120 cases in our county of 99,000 lol it's really only affecting those with pre-existing conditions or the elderly but can cause complications in pregnancy.
Yea I would wait too, especially because of your pregnancy. It’s better safe than sorry
My son is back to school as of the 18th, he has never been happier! I was alittle anxious about it and we will see how things continue to go. But I feel it was the best choice for him.
Yes I agree, we always can’t live in fear. And I’m happy that each and everyone in this app is considering taking their child back to school.
@amouryaya09, omg really? Sometimes here, our internet cuts off and my daughter gets kicked out in zoom.
@momma_of_1, yup! The internet is always randomly down or I’m not able to log in. 😐
@amouryaya09, I bet. It sucks because the teachers won’t go back onto what they teach the children.
@squishymommy1, I understand. How is it going in distance learning for your children?
@momma_of_1, could be better. But not as bad I expected it to be given how awful spring was.
@squishymommy1, omg yes, tell me about it! It was like all of this happened real quick. From one day to another
Yes definitely! Our district is awaiting approval right now. Their school sessions are only 2.5 hours and the class is split in half so it would be a small group. She’s already been going to the daycare at her school anyway, might as well let her into the classroom.
Yea I understand that. I feel like many children have a hard time learning at home, especially those who are struggling with wifi issues.
@momma_of_1, yeah it’s hard at home because I also have a 2 year old who doesn’t know the meaning of “be quiet,” wants to touch all the buttons on her computer, use her headphones, talk to her teacher, and talk continuously in general. That’s why I put her in daycare so she’s with other students and can focus. Plus they do other activities with her which she loves.
@2sweetie, aw, I bet she’s having a good time being around others. I can’t wait for our schools to open up.
when your children turn 18
How old will you be?
Transgender children
So I just learned that in my kids school district (my kids aren't in school yet my oldest will be starting kindergarten next September) there are twin boys who identify as girls. They are 5 years old. What's your opinions on this matter given they are 5!!! I don't believe that at that age they really understand the whole thing. So the entire school had to take a course on how to handle transgender children. For example they can't say girls go this or boys do that. What are...
Collections
Do you, your SO or children collect any items?
Present requests?
What has your child or children asked for presents?
Have you ever went...
Somewhere public and realize that your parenting and your children aren't as "bad" as you thought??
I think i will....its been so hard for him to stay home plus having 2 more kids..
