Rejected petition Stop forcing parents to send the children to school during the pandemic.

Parents should not be forced to send their children to school if they can care for and teach them from home. You cannot expect children to social distance all day long regardless if they have classroom bubbles or not. This is the quickest way the virus will spread.

More details

Our children are the most important aspects of our lives. They are the future of our country. Forcing parents to send their children to school is unethically and unfair. Parents should be able to choose to carry on home schooling their children if they want.
