One of my siblings is going to school once a week, I think lockdowns definitely fried some brains.

    Wouldn’t this be covered under covid frying people’s brains? Or are their parents too desperate and exhausted from working all the time to teach their kids to read?

      From what I understand it is pretty typical for these kids to not know how to write their names yet. Like the curriculum is very much still “this is the color blue” “it is now nap time”. You still have to do everything for them they are basically still babies. But that wasn’t the point I was making I can see how that would be confusing because of the way I wrote it. It is not the fact that they can’t write their names that is concerning, it is the behavioral issues that are clearly present in kids this young because they are issues that are directly related to being born around the time lockdowns were occurring. I’ve written some of them out in other comments ITT.
