    Social distancing of children Archived Message

    As part of the current "battle against the killer virus" / war on human beings, human scale relationships, happy childhood, human scale economies, primary school children will be required to stay within "class bubbles" - i.e. have little to no contact with other children in the school.

    How is going to halt the spread of a virus given that it is an impossible plan in the context of a busy school? Surely it will only serve to alienate, weird out and further #### up little kids?

    Parents will also be "required" to minimise social interaction at the school gates.

    I'm waiting for signs of administrators reluctantly and half-heartedly carrying out ridiculous instructions. Sadly I mostly see bushy-tailed Lord Furloughs enthusiastically chipping away at any sign decency in human life. Such people are neither friends nor comrades. Expect severe pushback, eventually.
