So
as a lot of us are still dealing with the Corona virus and you know,
now the country is slowly opening back up and which is a good thing in a lot of
instances. But the school year for all the kids, it's just done.
I mean a lot of the governors would say, Nope,
we're going to go ahead on and get it started. You know,
next school year we'll go from there.
But our kids at least since the month of March,
have been inside and they are doing virtual classes and just as much as you
know, we're doing it as parents. Um, here,
people like Halle Berry, which we're going to talk about here,
she's talking about having to basically homeschool her children and she's never
did anything like that before. Now she has two children by the name of Nala,
which I remember she had her, she's 12 now and her other child may see, Oh, uh,
Robert Martinez, six years old. Um,
she's been working with them, she said practically has been hard,
especially for her younger child is six years old to sit through a virtual
classroom because he doesn't have any examples of his classmates doing the same
thing. She said, she said, it's a nightmare for me. He said, it's a nightmare.
He said, this is like a wash of a semester.
She also continued to say they're really not learning anything and it's hard to
have a six year old and what I learned is that when six year old see other six
year olds doing things, then they tend to do it,
say like they sit and eat because there's 25 other ones doing it as well.
He said stay in their desk and color because 25 other ones are doing it.
So you know her little child is moving around and staying home.
They're not 25 other ones doing it. He said,
so to get them to him to focus and realize they're at home but yet at their
schools has really been the challenge you said,
but I enjoyed having extra time with them. He said,
we've been making good use of the time,
say when they're not in school and say when I'm not cracking the whip for
school.
She said we have to do a lot of family time Storytime bonding time that we don't
often get to have.
So I could relate to Halle Berry on that.
I have a five year old and one day I was sitting there with her and you know,
she had a teacher on the,
on the laptop and everything and you know,
the teacher doing what she had to do and my little girl,
she was just moving and different things because in school they don't really do
that. They, like I said, they have their classmates, they're doing their thing.
Um, and it's definitely been a challenge on a lot of parents to, you know,
basically start teaching our children ourselves. And I bet you this,
when school gets started back up,
parents really going to celebrate teacher appreciation day probably more than
any other time ever because you really get to see what teachers go through to
deal with children and learning. See as parents, we just drop our kids off,
whether they go to public school,
private school and we don't have to deal with them.
And a lot of people had so used to just dropping their kids off.
Some of them don't even know what their children actually be doing too much
cause they used to just not dealing with them like that in that manner.
But it's good, you know, they have been home in a lot of ways that, you know,
they can, you know, take a little break. But you know,
sometimes I'm even saying, Hey, you know what,
the school year become a pleat wash cause he,
my daughter's school will go away into the end of June is when they're out.
Then they get to do, if they choose to like the parents of course,
if you wanted to put your child in school for three weeks in July,
you can do that.
And then the month of August is out and then they will start back again in
September. So I'm hoping,
I'm hoping that my little girl can go back to school in June.
I'm hoping they can do it. Um, you know, since they are just over different,
you know, set of rules. I mean cigars follow state guidelines,
so they just have a different school calendar than public school.
But other celebrities like Taraji P Henson,
she's been talking about how she had to homeschool her kids. So listen,
it's all of us that's doing a lot of homeschooling.
But the great thing about it I believe as well is that it's just certain things
in school that I didn't like.
Course Halle Berry's children's not going to deal with what some of our children
deal with in public school with how some of the teachers are acting or the
police is in the school, you know, beating up and roughing up the kids.
You know,
that's something I'm actually glad that we not seen because they at home right
now. But you know,
shout out to all the parents that's dealing with your children right now.
You know, a lot of graduations going to be happening. You know,
some people decide to do it virtually. Um,
I know my daughter, my daughter's graduating, and they're going to do it, uh,
actually at the, uh, techs and stadium, uh, when they had a graduation.
So at least they having a graduation.
I was concerned that they wasn't gonna have it.
But let me know in the comments how you fairing with, you know,
your child or children, um, with virtual learning. And,
you know, I kinda heard that this may be actually added a next year as well,
that, you know,
sometimes your children be a school some days and some days will be at home
virtual learning.
Yeah.
