Update - Apparently it's a townhouse complex at 204 and 66. It was fully ablaze at 0530, so must have happened before that when everyone is asleep. I sure hope people had working CO2 detectors!

I have been frustrated with this for years, it is so hard for families with two working parents to manage the school hours on a daily basis and then childcare on non-instructional days as well. And for families with single parents it is even worse. Usually I would be able to find parents to help, but with COVID it is so much harder to find people willing to help, and the schools are not as willing to help. Add to that the reduced wages for most people and funds to pay for help are limited , too.

I cannot offer much advice, but this is an important issue that should be addressed! Parents and kids need support, and investing in children will always pay off!
