Should schools be closed?

19. To lessen the spread? The kids are

spreading it around town when out of school.

Parents should step up on this but some (too many) don't. Others can't because they are at work.

I heard of one dumb woman who let her daughter hold a big slumber party for friends since they could get up late without school. Others are pooling child care with one person taking in several children for working parents, which reproduces the same conditions as schools.

I sympathize with parents who must work. They need child care and cannot send kids to grandparents. I heard that some teachers are watching kids for parents. That's good, but ONLY if they limit the kids to one family.

Finally heard something intelligent from a Trump presser, though it did not come from him. Some communities are setting special seniors only shopping times in stores and forbidding entrance to younger shoppers.
