they don’t want school to open- but they don’t want you to homeschool, either.
If my kids were in this position i would certainly do my best to help them succeed.

The short answer to what is wrong with these people, is that they are straight jacketed by liberalism. They are afraid that some parents will do more for their children than others during this lockdown. And they can’t have that, per liberal theology.

First thing I do when reading headlines like this is to look and see if it’s The Onion or Babylon Bee. Sadly, in this case, it was neither.

Well. Ya. It’s kind of a parent’s basic role. Educating their kids

We’ve given up education to the government. That’s a problem.

Ya....if you have an IQ over 47 and help your kids with homework....that’s “unfair” and after all “fair” ensures equal outcomes....right?
