Not sure what to think at the moment. Ideally I'd like to keep my kids off school but my wife is a teacher and while she is working it's pointless. I can see the reasoning for keeping them open as if they close them then grandparents will likely have to do childcare, this then mixes the two groups that you want to keep seperate. But on the whole I'd say the country doesn't feel good about the way it's being handled. The messages we're receiving are mixed. "don't got to pubs or theatres" but they're not saying to shut them either so insurance companies don't have to pay out.<br />If we lock down here we'll be fine but we're in a difference situation to most. I have a good mate who is a single parent, no idea how he is expected to look after his daughter and work if the schools shut and he works with old people.
