For those arguing that we're going to make a whole generation of kids dumb by distance learning for a year is there any evidence that this is going to have that kind of permanent effect? Kids get homeschooled quite often, I was homeschooled for a year when I was about 11-12 and I don't think it affected much. Shit, I even correctly used effect and affect in this response. If that's not a testament to my education I don't know what is.
