100% Also, babysitting.
I feel like the push to make kids go back to in school learning isn't about what's best for kids but rather a way for governments to justify opening the economy back up via getting rid of covid restrictions for businesses and forcing employees back to work.

Yep! They see safety measures as the problem instead of the disease that kills hundreds of thousands of people.

Yes but. I think you’re mostly right but there is real concern among smart, caring people about kids. People, not politicians. Every politician who says they care about kids is lying. Kids not being in school is legit bad for many kids.

But there were work around that weren't even tried. Free internet and computers were provides from jump in weather school districts and took months in more urban districts. Social interaction could have been built into the day, and older students could have been allowed to.../1

it's also so that there's 'free' childcare so they can require people to go back to work where they can be monitored better and justify those huge commercial mortgages they've been posting for the last 18 months

Yeah, but that's not working as kids are already having to quarantine after their first week of school. Kids sacrificed a year of in school learning and socializing to keep adults safe, but now adults are unwillingly to do the same for kids. Selfish SOBs.

Plus folks are using Covid tests in a way that at least I’ve been told they are not intended ie tests don’t mean someone is Covid free but rather a negative says that no Covid was picked up in the sample tested & that can mean it’s just not in that swabbing.

That part, and in the places that won't allow masks for schools to spread covid as much as possible like a big chicken pox party for "herd immunity"

Except that it won’t create immunity…

It is what’s best for kids, but that’s conditional on mitigation measures within schools and potentially restrictions elsewhere in order to ensure schools can remain open But many “leaders” aren’t willing to make those difficult choices, prioritizing recreation over education
-
And everyone knew those measures weren't going to be taken. Too many districts didn't do them last year, ffs, so we knew it wouldn't be magically better this year. The schools were banking on this year being better, not the Delta variant or not enough adults vaccinated.
