The idea of no social contact and no interaction with other people is absurd...it would end us

we may have to wait until a vaccine is developed to get back to normal, but we will get back...economically and socially...we are connected and we need each other 

With social contact it would also end us so whats the difference. The without would work much better and would slow the spread of the virus. Even if we did have the vaccine it would be on hold for testing and making sure it will work. It would probably be close to another 1/2 a year(2021) to start giving it to people everywhere after it was a proven vaccine.

All kids need social interaction. Homeschooled kids are oddballs. There are far more positives in sending them to school.

Not entirely. My grand-daughters are homeschooled 3 days a week, but have to go to co-op school 2 days a week to interact with other kids and get tested to make sure they use the proper curriculum. They're a military family.

One thing that could likely come from this is virtual medical 

we could be seeing our doctors from our laptops a lot more to discuss test results and issues that don’t require office visits  

A lot of health insurance plans already have some things like this.

Yep, that is why I said the social aspects of school, beyond bullying, were very good.

Like L George, I don't see it as an all or nothing endeavor.  With so many crises of the past, we learn things when forced into situations.  The question was, how do you think it might change.  We obviously don't want to go backwards.

 

For me, riding the bus was the best socializing I had in all of my school years (until college).  The bus didn't come get us at our houses, they made the entire neighborhood go to a meeting spot and picked us up all at once.  That meant every single morning all 6+ of us had to sit at the bus stop and chit chat with eachother until the bus got there.  It was like our water cooler/coffee machine time for kids, to talk about the sporting events that happened the night before and talk about things coming up.  Being on the bus was a similar experience, with tons of raw social interaction as it took 30+ minutes to get us to/from school.

As far as bullying, don't forget that in today's world online bullying is a huge problem and in some ways its worse than in person bullying.

Question was A, B or C

You answered NO

It is just a discussion

Yeah, "no" to all of it. Both times. China will not get any retaliation just because coronavirus originated in their country. And as I said in another post, social interaction is a big part of school. There, I discussed it. :)

Brace for impact. At the current trajectory, we're looking at 100,000 dead Americans 10 days from now. Let's hope that curve begins to flatten. The last two data points indicate that we may be seeing the beginnings of that.

NC looks to be flattening out quite a bit. We’ll see.

The interesting one for me is Washington. Early on it looked like the Seattle area was going to be what NYC ended up becoming. Instead, they'll be dropping out of the top 10 states very soon. They're barely hanging on at #10 as it is.

from talking to friends in the healthcare industry here i don't think that's the case.    people are being advised to not get tested, and to not go to the hospital if they can still breathe.

      I think the same thing, they don’t have any better options especially since Christiansen is out for the year

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By JawnyBlaze · Posted

      It wasn’t completely his fault, but outside of two throws and one or two scrambles he didn’t do much to help. His accuracy was all over the place, numerous passes that were placed poorly and didn’t give the receiver a good chance to catch the ball or do anything with it after. He also continues to display terrible pocket awareness. Even the sacks could have been avoided, they weren’t immediate like the pressure we got on Shough at times. Bryce just often has no feel for pressure and stands there waiting to get sacked after numerous seconds have passed.

      I really fuging hate this era in so many ways.  I look at those Adin Ross and Neon kids, and I just wonder why tf are they famous?  Why would anyone be desperate enough to gain THAT audience that they’d risk money, career, disciplinary action to go up there and associate with those fuging dweebs?  And back in my day, racist peers got their ass beat.  And not endorsing or approving bully culture, but checks and balances and all…  had those two been bullied, or at the very least humbled, they wouldn’t be famous and glorified for being the fuging idiots they are now.  It seriously pisses me off… they both have done and said multiple, openly racist stuff and major media keeps pushing them, talking about them, and propping them up… and then dummies like Puka who don’t need the platform or exposure lend their celebrity to them.  fuging idiot… and even the other streamers, I don’t get - Speed, Kai…  I don’t understand making nobodies famous at all, but there is at least entertainment value to some degree there, and I could see how young, impressionable kids would find them something to aspire to (sadly), or view as “cool.”  But Ross and Neon?  They’re just shitty, shitty nerds with big ass mouths. I’ve went back recently and watched some classics (in two very different eras and categories 😂)  like Robocop and Idiocracy.  And what I find fascinating is how both movies illustrate how stupid society became by showing what the citizenry is entertained by.  In both, society became anti-intellectual and the citizenry were entertained by lowest denominator, primal-type absurdity - poo like, “Ouch! My Balls!”  Or on Robocop, a guy is a watching a show where they are smashing cakes on ladies’ breasts and then a guy says a line as the camera zooms in like, “I’d buy that for a dollar!” and the audience thinks it’s hilarious.  That’s where I feel like we are now.  Like who watches that clip with Puka and thinks any of that poo is funny or cool?  If I was Puka, I’d honestly be wondering why tf I’m hanging out with these beta ass, racist, cretin ass weirdos.
