I have a feeling a lot of families are going to come out of this much more bonded with their kids and better able to handle time together - once they get over the initial adjustment period. Except for the poor kids with abusive parents who have no escape now. Ugh.
I could see lots of other weird revelations, changes in family dynamics, and unforeseen outcomes coming out of this.

Wife said and is hoping for the same thing. Hopefully, families come out better for this. Hopefully, people understand what teachers do and how hard it is to be a teacher. And for some-how little their kids do their work. Hopefully, people are nicer to service workers. And just nicer overall..
Hey, I can hope.
