We don't want it to be a break with and you don't ever have to do that thing that was bothering you.

You still have to do the thing.

You just get to take a break from it now.

So that prioritizing of relationship is critical.

After that the virtual stuff is it's kinda broad, so I'm gonna poke around and play around in various areas.

I wanna start with the emotional side of it because I think that this is something that's not getting looked at enough.

A lot of the anxiety that kids are experiencing when they have to do virtual school.

Is getting chalked up to school resistance.

And I don't think that's what it is.

I think that when a kid sits down

to do their virtual schooling, what happens is they get reminded that things are not normal anymore.

They get reminded that we're living in the pandemic.

And things are scary and uncertain.

And unclear and inconsistent.

And I think that brings about a very real existential dread that the kid can't even name or identify if they wanted to half the time.

And that's the anxiety that they're dealing with.

It's not anxiety that's pointed at like English or their teacher or math or something like that.

It's everything is weird and I'm sitting at my kitchen table.

going to school and that's not how this is supposed to be and it's I don't like it.

I think that's a huge amount of the anxiety that's coming up.
