Oh, boy…it sure seems like the parents out there really aren’t getting the hang of this distance learning thing, are they?
They’re giving it their best shot, but it’s a lot to deal with and they’re stressed AND there’s nowhere to run and nowhere to hide.
So let’s try to give them a little break, okay?
Parents with kids at home, these posts are for you.
