I don’t live there, but isn’t there a large portion of the student population that is returning to schools after a year? I doubt most parents in that case were setting up play dates, so in effect this has been almost a lockdown for those children.
That seems to be the exact problem - why weren't parents setting up play dates?? It's shocking to me how many families seem to think that their kid has no opportunity to talk to another child until schools open again.
