I want to get a message to the President that he should address the current high school seniors across America. They had their senior year ruined by this virus. My daughter, for example, had her senior prom cancelled 3 hours before it was supposed to start. We were literally putting the final touches on her makeup when the school's robocall came in that all high school functions were to be cancelled immediately. This included prom, all awards ceremonies, the senior play, the senior trip to Disney World that we had being paying for all year, and now graduation. School just unceremoniously ended. They don't even get to say goodbye to the friends they've been with for years. No one is really talking about them. They feel forgotten and unimportant. And, really, so do the parents. I feel that we were robbed of this milestone, too. This is such an important transition for the whole family.
I was thinking that maybe if the President addressed the high school seniors directly that it could ease some of the sting.
Thanks, pedes!
Yes! The wife and I figured this out a long time ago and it breaks our hearts. Prom/graduation are major coming-of-age events and this'll be the first generation to miss that. Hopefully two things can happen, the seniors get redpilled about the why and who, and something can be planned to make up for it, maybe a nationwide coordinated event.
When you're at the grocery store checking out and your clerk seems of this age, ask. Let them know people care. There's plenty of snowflakes out there who could use a nice "hair on the chest" moment, but doesn't mean we don't have to make an effort to right it.
