RICHMOND, Va. (WWBT) - Days away from a new administration in the governor’s mansion, we’re getting a closer look at what changes to expect for your kids in school. Governor-Elect Glenn Youngkin has promised to rescind the mask mandate on his first day in office.

We wanted to get to the bottom of what that will mean for your students.

To get straight to the point - expect some changes. But, it may take some time to get clarity on how those changes are implemented for our kids.

“I think parents should be empowered to make decisions for their children,” Glenn Youngkin, Governor-Elect told Henry Graff in a one-on-one interview. “So, we’re going to have a common sense, common sense approach but also one that protects lives and livelihoods and I think together we can in fact forge a new path forward.”

Here’s the verbatim of the Virginia Code on the subject. It says: “A parent has a fundamental right to make decisions concerning the upbringing, education, and care of the parent’s child.”

Then shouldn't that mean that a parent can make a decision on whether to administer any kind of vaccination to their child at any age and the schools should still be required to admit them?

Every day I cannot believe that Americans do not seem to consider that there will be extreme damage done to small children being made to wear face masks.

1. Preventing churches from meeting.

2. Suspending elections.

3. Small kids in face masks.

America is not what I thought she was. Now I know.

Not just small kids in face masks. My teen daughter (in private high school) and my teen son (in college) are in face masks 7 hours a day.

Imagine trying to flirt and chat while masks? Meet people? Have their teacher recognize them?

Imagine trying to learn AP Spanish when both the students and teachers are masked.

They both have a lot of acne—from the mask.

They are vaxxed and have done everything asked of them. Missed a whole year of school sitting at home. They’ve both had covid. They are not infectious and can’t be infected. The mandatory masking in schools bothers me daily.

I want metrics at which masking can be made voluntary but there are none, ever, provided.
