goofus saysSure, good luck with educating kids in different grades, with full curriculum, while paying a private school for the privilege of grading your work. While working from home. Save your tears, buddy. There are only so many hours in a day.
Ummmm... Millions of families do this. It's called homeschooling.

As a rule, people who homeschool don’t have dual careers. Someone has to have homeschool teacher as their job.

Public schools are passing the buck, sure, while paying teachers full fare. But our private school here is even worse -- they expect parents to teach (full curriculum - while the teacher skates by with a 45 minute zoom) AND to pay full tuition. Any parents who squawk are told to adjust their "mindset." Damn it. We're doing Khan Academy and skipping tuition next month.

Is it possible that the lock-downs is a way to send wives back into the kitchen? Just like the Me-Too movement and the equal-pay-for-lower-productivity movement were ways to reduce women's employment rate?
Better question is, when do we stop paying administrative bureaucrats who do fuck-all toward the function of educating kids? I'm talking about nepots and incompetents in plum 6 figure positions.

A school could easily be down for months (well not blizzard, days for that) with these disasters. They didn't have a plan? WTF? What are we paying them for? I'm pretty pissed as a tax payer right now. Sick of government workers getting bailed out every time everyone else takes a hit. WE don't have a choice in paying taxes. It's bullshit.
