I Work With Kids

I tend to forget how much adrenaline courses through the body during a lock down, until the next lock down, which was 20 minutes ago.

Silver lining: I finally feel awake. 👍

@SW-User They usually are, a bit. My son's school is next door and they were also locked down. The kids I had were champs and knew exactly what to do. We do drills pretty regularly. Practice pays off. 🙂

@QueenofCups was it just a false alarm or something? I guess that'd be the best option. I suppose you might not ever even know for sure in some cases. that'd drive me insane.

@SW-User It was, thank goodness. Usually we don't know anything until after it's over, and it usually ends up being nothing. In a way, it's good, because it helps us focus on keeping the kids calm and getting in the mindset to defend them if it comes to that.
