Concerns from Facebook woman...

School! We love Sackville we moved here a year and a half ago. Our family is so happy! I respect and appreciate my teacher friends locally and across the world. This pandemic has been challenging for everyone. Lordy, here it comes! Our daughter is in grade 11. She is on an alternate schedule where she goes to school 2 days one week and 3 days the other. The thing is, they are given online tutorials (off days), reading, chapters and units. Our daughter along with her friends (I have witnessed them at our counter and kitchen table while I make lunch or supper for them) are studying at least 8 hrs a day including weekends. I know we have to be diligent with the virus but I think our kids are paying the price with stress. I have seen and heard our children express their despair, anxiety and crying. I have no answer other than “we’re here for you and support you”. Anyone else experiencing this with there teens? How can we support each other?
