Yes, both the politics of the parents, and the politics of the local governments and school boards.

So they will put that ahead of the safety of their own children?

The safety of children has been used as a reasoning to open schools...

no they will put that ahead of the growth of their own children.

I have no issue with that if that is what the parent believes.
I guess I should have asked what would you do (members with children).

[CountValentine]

no they will put that ahead of the growth of their own children.

So the growth of their child is more important than the safety of their child?

A school board in FL sent a letter out saying that food programs will only be available to on-campus students. Definitely a factor.

politics will figure into the decision but it might not be te parents' politics but rather whoever is making the ultimate decision to open or close schools.

That is unfortunate to put pressure on the parents that way.

driving the kid to school is more dangerous than having the kid in school....

This is if you have an option.

Not sure what you mean. I am thinking about a parent that is likely going to homeschool because they don't want to send to school (for mostly political reasons).
