For many children in the U.S., the usual back-to-school jitters are likely to be a lot more intense this year amid the coronavirus pandemic.

Among students slated to attend school in person, “there are worries about illness and germs and am I going to be able to see my grandparents if I go back to school,” says Muniya Khanna, a clinical psychologist and research instructor at the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia.

No masks in Sweden, none

Death rate?

The pandemic is over. The hysteria and oppression continues. Multiple studies in Europe show students aren't spreaders or patients. These back-to-school stories perpetuate an illusion. rejectthepremise

bla bla. Get them used to it. Make the mask fun. Masks are normal. Whats next? This s all crap.

They are correct to be anxious. They are being sent into literal death traps.

This is what children should be worried about dangerous democrat run cities have killed more children than Covid.

From February 1 to August 8 13,624 children have died in America 49 of those from Covid all with underlying conditions. The fear the media is spreading about the virus is reckless it’s not about public safety it’s about the election and we all know it but the kids. Disgusting

You can ease their anxiety by not letting them listen to fake news like the WSJ.

Best way is to keep your kids home since it’s not safe to send them to school.

Don’t let them watch the media hype. And homeschool.

If we focus on convincing kids they can be safe, it will only make them more anxious. We should speak with them about managing the surprises and help them prepare for the unexpected. Because its coming.

Your kids are stressed out cause you stress them out
