I work from home. My wife stays at home and takes care of young kids.

We sent our 6 yo back to (in person) school because computer school was a bad idea.

I have a friend who teaches high school. He is SO relieved to be ending computer teaching.

I think so people want in person school so parents can work, but plenty of people want in person school because it IS better.

I empathize. We had to switch to home schooling because we couldn't keep home internet.

I also think in person is better than remote. I can still think the bias to make it look safe to send kids back to school feels forced.

> but plenty of people want in person school because it IS better.

For some kids, lots of data showing some kids thrived and improved while others suffered.
