Nothing I choose feels right.
School doesn't feel right.
Homeschool doesn't feel right.
Virtual school doesn't feel right.
Hybrid school doesn't feel right.
Delaying school doesn't feel right.
Starting school on time doesn't feel right.
Getting temperature checks doesn't feel right.
Having my child wear a mask in school doesn't feel right.
Having to choose between my children’s health and education doesn't feel right.
Worrying if I send them to a school that not only looks different but feels different doesn't feel right.
Worrying that later on down the road sending them to a school and wearing a mask and getting their temperature checked constantly will somehow impact their mental health doesn't feel right.
Worrying that them possibly seeing a classmate or teacher become sick and worrying if that person will ever come back doesn't feel right.
As parents we aren't just thinking about this upcoming school year, we are worrying about how this will impact our kid's health and mental health now and in the future because both of those things are equally as important.
Because the truth is this school year nothing I choose feels right and the only thing that would feel right is school back to how it was last year before all this came along.
