   Me, to #sonTwo: #sonOne doesn't know what to do about #GD1, because they aren't giving a remote learning option for her school and he doesn't want her bringing #COVID-19 home to #GD2 (whose school does have a remote learning option this year).
   
   sonTwo: He could always try home schooling.
   
   Me, laughing: He's part of the leftish group that has always opposed such things. I expect he'll end up doing that, but it will happen at the last minute.

     There is a faction that believes mandatory on campus public schooling is the only way. There are a lot of them in California.

     sure, they aren't anarchists. Free schools are the lineage of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Francisco_Ferrer
