With many educational institutions across B.C. open to returning
students this fall, parents of school-aged children have had to
face the difficult decision of whether to send their child back to
school or to continue their education at home for the near
future.
While the B.C. government has created a detailed plan for the
return to in-class learning, community transmission of COVID-19
continues to climb, and many parents remain concerned for the
health and safety of their children and family members.
Further complicating this decision are the sometimes differing
opinions between separated parents; one parent may want to keep the
child at home, while the other believes it is more important for
them to return to class. How should these types of disputes be
resolved?
