I am a single dad in a school district that is now closed for the foreseeable future. I have no family within 3,000 miles and I have to work. My child isn’t old enough to stay at home by themselves. What is a person supposed to do? I’m honestly livid. Do I just quit my job and go broke? Or do I continue to go broke paying for endless daycare? It’s an impossible situation.

Feel around and try to find a home school pod you can trust (as much as is possible given the time frame). Multiple children taught by one or rotating parents. I'm betting you'll find more compassion and give you kids a better education that way.
