Vs
The unsung hero, backbone in the foundations of the world economy!.
.
PLEASE,USE COMMON SENSE!
KEEP THE SCHOOLS OPEN!
.
We DO NOT want a situation were vulnerable grandparents are having to look after grandchildren because the parents still have to go to work!
.
.
But what about the teachers?
.
.
Most teachers will retire at 60 (ish) and NOT be over 70!
.
Teachers will almost certainly be infected but unless they have an underlying respiratory disease, or suppressed immune system they 'should' be able to shrug it off.
.
True the school is not a safe workplace,
BUT then again,
THERE ARE NO SAFE WORKPLACES FOR ANYONE!
.
No safe workplace for the people trying to restock the shelves.
.
No safe workplace for the people trying to serve you at the till.
.
No safe workplace for the people trying to manage the gas stations, deliver the post or take out the garbage.
.
.
There are NO costless perfect solutions.
No miracles to perform,
Only damage control to manage.
.
And for now, keeping the schools open is the least bad of all the current bad options.
.
.
Unless your government is prepared to freeze all bills and mortgage payment and give parents a basic amount of money to stay at home instead of working.
But I doubt that will ever happen!
.
Most people do not have the resources to afford an au pair!
.
The bottom E2 economic bracket can NOT afford childcare!
.
.
I am happy for you if you happen to be fairly successful and financially secure, but do not be blinkered or too judgemental to those who are not!
.
.
Grandparents are the secret grey-haired, unsung hero, backbone in the foundations of the world economy!
