Many B.C. parents want to see kids wearing masks at school this fall

“I would want to wear one at school because I would want to keep my friends safe, and my teachers, and everybody around, because I wouldn’t want anyone to catch it,” said Zoe.

Martins thinks it’s unacceptable that B.C.’s return-to-school plan doesn’t mandate face-coverings in schools, and hopes that will change. “There’s lots of things that we can do to make those environments safe without requiring somebody to sit with a mask on for a long period of time,” she said. “That’s what we’ll be looking at.”

“My stance is mask-wearing can be one of the methods that can help, but I don’t think it will stop an outbreak from happening,” Cheung said.Article content continued Dextraze is comfortable with the current guidelines from the province regarding masks in schools, but if that changes she is willing to be flexible.

Classrooms are enclosed, crowded spaces and Vincent believes it’s impossible to physically distance under the current conditions. She and her eldest son will wear masks when school resumes in September, and she is considering keeping her youngest children at home for a few weeks to see whether guidelines change. When they return, they will also wear masks all day.Article content continued

Yes we know many parents have succumbed to the hysteria heaped on them by the msm +that many parents actually don't know that masks are useless and that the virus is not a risk to 99.5% of the population + that it's done. It's over. Parents shld watch this

Let's see a poll with actual parents of school aged children. Enough with the scare tactic news

And many parents don’t.

STOP politicizing covid. If you want to wear a mask do it. Stop forcing everyone else to. As a teacher, I listen to Dr. Bonnie Henry on this one, it is safer for kids to not be wearing masks. We wonder why kids have so much anxiety today even before covid, stop freaking kids out
