If parents wish to keep their kids home then that's ok but keeping schools open means education continues for the children and those parents who work in critical services can continue going to work.

Some people need to stop and start looking outside their own bubble.
I guess you have not seen that children are getting infected here in australia? as for teachers being adult enough? wow buddy, these adult teachers are working in classrooms with no supplied safety equipment, no masks, no sanitizer no paper towelling, no room to space children at the required distances and the list goes on.

I agree some people need to start looking outside thier bubble, says the man in the mirror.
