SCHOOLS SHOULD STAY SHUT !!!

I am not keen on children so I didn't have any, they are not compulsory anymore.

So many people who did choose to have children have not even taken the time to get to know and relate to them.

From what I can see the two of our grandchildren who have children are enjoying the challenge and are doing all sorts of things with them. Great Granddaughter is enjoying home school so much she didn't want to stop for Easter break. Some of the things the parents come up with are really imaginative. I am sure when I was their age I would not have had the patience.

Only the poor can afford to have many children.

I am stunned, amazed ... but certainly not speechless when I heard this!

One team of scientists has said that closing schools has marginal impact. Ha! That'll be the team which is already fed up and going barmy with their children being at home.

Other scientists have said the closing schools is important. I am firmly behind the second lot.

I think the first lot are a bit loose up top, to say the least.

How will hordes of children mixing together and using trains and buses five days a week, popping into places for drink and food on their way to and from school not have more than a marginal impact. Who would want their children and others exposed to such an unnecessary risk?

Of course that sick-of-our kids group may be useless at training their children to do the homework their schools set. That same group may also want to reduce our population numbers quickly. It may believe that exposure in children will produce more antibodies - never mind how many will die or spread the virus to under-school-age tots, parents, grandparents and other adults. Or they may belong to the conspiracy brigade.

Lost the plot completely in my opinion. Driven round the bend by their children already.

They may not be bothered about their children's health and it certainly appears that they have no regard for the general public but FGS, I hope our overworked health and care staff slap them down with a piece of reality.

As I wrote, I am stunned!
