You seem to want me to believe we should send kids to school because someone said they should do so with social distancing in place. FWIW, the standards they said would be required appear to be impossible. But, if you just read the headline....

I have heard Fauci, Redfield (CDC), APA, leading Republicans, leading Democrats all say that kids should be back in school over the last 2 weeks. When that many people, across that wide of a spectrum agree, it is hard to justify the opposing position. Hell it may be the only thing all of those factions have agreed on ever.

That said, I would virulently defend your right to choose that sending your kids back to school at this time is not what your family thinks is the best course of action. I just ask that you let everyone else do what pretty much all of the experts say is acceptable. Why do you have such a dire need to tell everyone else what they must do with their children's education?

A) Not "pretty much all the experts" are saying its acceptable.
B) Which parents did I tell them what they must do?

A) You have quite the talent for ignoring the entire substance of an argument in order to re-focus the argument on semantics when the substance is at odds with your position.
B) All of them. You are pretty vehemently opposed to allowing schools to open.
