It is one of those "loaded" questions, Kevin. It can't be answered either way to the satisfaction of a socieity that values both education and health/life.

Just the ones I associate with.

It seems pretty simple to me. You can catch up if a child misses a year of education. You can't bring a dead child back to life.
You see, that choice isn't being floated--not really. It's actually "IS IT WORTH TENS OF THOUSANDS OF DEAD CHILDREN TO GET ME REELECTED?" And for our Supreme Narcissist, the answer is "Hell, yeah!"
I can only imagine what parents are going through. It's horrible that Trump is essentially trying to blackmail schools to open up. The money he's threatening to withhold goes to supporting the neediest and most impoverished students. I was surprised to learn that he has the power to do that--maybe he actually doesn't?
The most horrifying thought of all is that maybe he's well aware of whom his threats, if carried out, would hurt the most--minority and impoverished families. They're not Trump supporters, so maybe he WANTS to kill a couple hundred thousand of them? We've already seen his utter lack of compassion with his kids-in-cages program--over 1,000 kids are still there BTW--and the fact that thousands of kids might die if schools are opened up not only doesn't bother him--it fills him with delight. Because, you know, they're all children of rapists and murderers anyway.
As of mid May (Wash Post) less than 12 people under 17 have died from the virus. They also tend not to be carriers. More were killed by gunfire.
The probability of thousands of children dying seems remote

And what number of child deaths would you find acceptable in order to get your orange god reelected?
There's also the fact that while an infected child may not die, that child can still infect dozens of others--including older family members who may be much more susceptible. So opening up schools is a stupid idea for that reason as well. You KNOW kids won't observe social distancing and will be careless about wearing masks.
"The probability of thousands of children dying seems remote" -- unless they live in Chicago, Atlanta or any of the other DemocRatic run cities.

Yeah, we've seen how people in Republican cities are completely immune to Covid-19.
What an idiotic thing for Stalker to say.
What is the death toll of children in Republican controlled cities in comparison to DemocRatic controlled cities? What a stupid thing for Kevin to say - but that is nothing new.
"There's also the fact that while an infected child may not die, that child can still infect dozens of others" - Another kevin lie, children are not known to be carriers (CDC).
More children were killed by gunfire last week than died from the virus. How scarred is the 7 year old girl who watched her father gunned down while he was walking with her? kevin doesn't seem to care about that.

Kevin, you didn't amount to anything. Don't prove it further.
