CINCINNATI â For Carol Fiel of Oakley, watching her children suffer through shifts from in-person to remote and blended learning has been a painful experience. Five of her six children go to Cincinnati Public Schools.
âIt s been extraordinarily difficult for the older ones in particular because they didn t have much screen time when they were growing up,â Fiel said.
The full-time mother said some of her children even get physically sick from being online for so long. Her son, who attends Spencer High School, vomits and gets migraines from being online all day.
Her daughter, a seventh grader at Walnut Hills High School, used to be a model student with a strong personality. Now she is failing miserably; these days she takes medication and goes to therapy to manage her depression.
