I’m so sick of schools closing because of a light dusting of snow. Do they not understand parents still have to work?
Blame culture has made everyone so afraid of being sued that that won’t be sensible about these things.

Kids’ safety matters, but so does common sense. Shutting everything down for minimal snow ignores the reality of working parents.
@Fertilization And the teachers who can't get in because the roads are like ice rinks???
A police car was involved in the accident that it was responding to by me this morning.

@HootyTheNightOwl everyone else is at work, just not teachers apparently.

@HootyTheNightOwl That’s exactly my concern. If teachers and even emergency responders are struggling to travel safely, it suggests the conditions are more serious than they appear. Decisions like this are usually about preventing avoidable risk, not ignoring families’ needs.

@Fertilization Bit that isn’t what happened.
The streets and roads were gritted and clear. Everybody rise was able to travel to work.
But because the schools closed I had to take unpaid time off work to family children.
