    Not a parent, but I’ll speak for my Asian-American parents.

    The policy is: “You must go to school even if you have Covid, either you are buried or your are at school.” (meaning: if you aren’t dead, you have to go to school)

    “Classmates have bullet wounds? That’s your internship for being a doctor!” (/s they didn’t actually say this part, obviously, but it’s implied)

    Edit: I’m no longer in school, my college plans are on pause due to depression.
