@xanthan: I've never really thought about finding homeschooling groups. Actually I haven't really thought about homeschooling because I don't think I can afford to. I feel more secure knowing we have dual income for our household, because if something were to happen to either one of us, at least we'll be okay, financially. But I do think I can find support groups for parents in similar situations. My son's current program does virtual support groups once a month, and the person who runs them also frequently shares support materials via email, so I can always fall back on those.

I like the idea of having an occasional item design contest. Just pitch a theme, and let your userbase go wild.

@xanthan: I'm in the same boat--no trust in the government or other powers that be in the practices (or lack thereof) for how to do things. My biggest concern is of course the opportunity for covid to spread. Even if it doesn't usually affect kids, I work with the elderly population for a living. If he brought it home, and I brought it to work...I can't even think of how shitty I'd feel. We've been very fortunate to not have any residents contract it, but a couple employees have unfortunately had it, and we've been very careful to keep it out of our building.

I don't personally know of any parents with kids in his age group other than this kid who lives across the street from my parents (they watch him while I'm at work). I've contemplated arranging a playdate with them, but I'm not sure how to go about it since our schedules seem to be so different. My son's early intervention used to have play groups for kids his age and their families, but this was all before covid. Now of course, those are postponed indefinitely, and so he doesn't have much opportunity to be around others his age. Sometimes we'll take him to a park in the area, but I'm leery about him interacting with most people right now.

My son is turning 3 in November and will be eligible to start attending school.
However, he's in an early intervention program for his delays in speech and communication, so taking covid out of the picture, this is all very anxiety-inducing for me. But putting covid in the picture, I'm not sure I even want him to start, but I worry about him not starting and missing out on the things he needs for his development.
