    Schools are glorified daycare, expensive glorified daycare, considering what the little shits are taught - lies/bullshit/hate that they can usually learn at home - would be better off closed for good.

      U might be very correct. Not enough discipline and its a good foundation of where problems start.

          Where are your kids going to be all day with no school? Parents dont want to hang out with their kids every day..

            that is the bigger thing. parents do not want their kids around all the time, especially if they end up back at work.

            summer is coming and camps are supposed to open..parents here are already panicking about having their kids for the summer

                Come on man, how about the bus drivers taking the kids to schools. How about all the teachers, how about all the custodial people, how about all the people that work in the lunch rooms and cafateria's and on and on it goes....Kids, what age group you talking about? Kids under 25 have been infected and have died from it.

                  It's news because:

                  1- the Mayor did it, and he doesn't have authority. Just adds to the circus that is NY and Coumo/DeBlasio being literally the last 2 people on Earth you'd want in charge of your local bingo game let alone a pandemic

                  2- it freezes money

                  3- it puts children in home instead of school, unsupervised

                  4- it paves the way to extend the local burroughs shutdown thru Sept as well...which Coumo cannot have for political reasons

                  5- it will then require the City to pay billions in aid to families, money the City doesn't have

                      Aren't public schools free? I agree with OP that school closure is not a big news.

                        yes they are, all teachers, administrators and support staff are all volunteers

                        my position is that the education system is no longer necessary in light of technology and that 1/2 of what is taught in schools is lies and bullshit/fake news - hence, expensive, glorified daycare
                        and that after 3rd or 4th grade
                        6th tops, put those little bastards out in the workforce picking cotton and performing other community service

                        one way to un-pussify the nation while doing something tangible to make the USA great again
