It honestly feels like we are a lot of teenagers and dad is trying to go lenient but others aren't listening so he's being forced to take things away. I saw a meme about other kids in kindergarten ruining recess for everyone else.

I'm so confused. The president at DH's job literally said they will keep business as usual until they're forced to shut down. Doesn't really help.

There's no way we make it through this without shutting down. Businesses are already hurting and jobs have already been lost. By not shutting down, we are prolonging healing. Those people will be hurting longer. I don't get it.

Ugh I hate this all.

Frustrating. At one point we were the first state taking the next serious measures, and now it feels like it’s stalled. We clearly need to be doing more, what is he afraid of?

I mean, for fucks sake, my gym closed for 1 day. The following day, the coach/owner started posting on fb that he's doing group workouts at his house with no more than 9 at a time so that plus him makes 10. WTF. Completely sidesteps the point of closing gyms.

I don't understand what's going to happen for him to shut it down? The number of cases keep going up.

This is very frustrating to watch. How does he not even mention childcare? And why do we have to wait for more “bad behavior” to take further steps? This is nuts.

I didn't watch the press conference today because I was busy arguing via email with someone at work I am kind of shocked that senior centers weren't already shut down. I guess maybe I considered them to be similar to other gathering places. It seems like those should have been in the first wave of closures. I also agree, we were leading the country at first and now it feels like DeWine is hesitant to do what needs done. It is frustrating and confusing.

A reporter asked about the fact there are more men sick than women. I wanted to yell it's because women listen to directions.

He said just now that the school closures were going to last longer than 3 weeks. I think something will be said next week.

My H was pulled into a meeting at work this AM and told to prepare for a SIP announcement today and their company announced that they are considered essential (power generation industry), but to tell his direct reports to take their materials home tonight. So today's information was not at all what we were expecting.
I'm annoyed a bit. Like shut it all down so we can move on. The wondering is hard, the waiting is just delaying getting to the other side of this. Scolding "bad behavior" isn't going to work. People are doing what they want, so take away their ability to make bad choices.

I have to get this out somewhere. I just have to say I am so impressed by how our school is handling this new distance learning thing. We made a big move 2 years ago & I was nervous at first because we weren't able to get into our preferred school district at the time but ever since he started school here, he's been flourishing. Within this first week, we were able to get into google classroom, work has been posted, frequent interaction with his teacher/classmates through flipgrid. His guidance counselor & even speech teacher as well as specials set up plans/ideas to incorporate them also into our daily rituals. I was worried at first I had to set up my own "homeschool" with the various places offering free trials, etc but everything has been so easy & readily available while I'm hearing other people have not even heard from their child's teacher yet. It's during these times you kind of see who rises to the occasion & I think we're going to be okay.
