Im all for students who can learn just as well at home continuing to do so. Some kids are really struggling with online learning, however, and giving them the option to learn in person should be a priority in our portfolio of things we strive to keep open. I mean I don't disagree with you substantively on that. I just don't like the whole paradigm of arbitrarily calling some things essential and other things not. That's a value judgment and at a minimum, the electorate needs to vote on these things. The People have elevated a certain small number of things to especially protected status in the Bill of Rights: speech, religion, press, protest, guns, fair and speedy trials, etc. But among things not covered, one shouldn't be able to just impose value judgments on others. Not in our republic. --- September 1, 2003; November 4, 2007; September 2, 2013 Congratulations to DP Oblivion in the Guru Contest! ... Copied to Clipboard! |
