Probably had too many children test positive for covid because their parents are too stupid to care about anybody but themselves.

Did you read the article? The kid in the article's mom is vaxxed. He has several medical conditions which make the vaccine a bad idea for him, personally. Mom ain't anti-vax, but came to a conclusion that vax wasn't right for his SPECIFIC medical situation.

Which is kind of why we trust parents to make these decisions child by child rather than allowing the government (or the schools) to decide for them.

What would we do without public schools! They eliminate 50 problems for every one they cause.

Schools solve exactly three problems:
1) Educating the youth
2) What to do with kids while parents work
3) Socialization of children in a controlled environment

That's it. Any other "problem" they are "solving" is either: one of their own making; a straw man; a situation where they are stripping parents of their rights, authority, and/or responsibility (and thus, not their problem to solve); or a situation where they are actually making problems worse in the long run, not solving them.

SFC Casey O'Mally - I was speaking for each individual problem of each child, and of each parent. Just in one school and with just one of your points, #2, it solves hundreds of problems every day at one school.

PFC David Foster - In that case, every time a school enacts a dress code, it creates hundreds of problems, every day, at one school. Every time a school insists on stocking elementary and middle school libraries with porn, it creates hundreds of problems, every day, at one school. Etc.
