Mask shaming
“Students who wear a mask to school, are being bullied, being shamed by other students, and to the point where they finally remove their masks,” he says.
This is exactly what he doesn’t want his child to do in a school district that has active COVID cases and he says is not handling the situation as well as they did last spring.
“Currently there’s no social distancing, there’s no physical realignment of the desks, children are just continuing on business as usual is if there’s no pandemic surrounding us,” he explains.
CBS News medical expert Dr. David Agus says mask shaming starts at home.
“I mean a lot of times kids do what their parents tell them to do,” he says. “Mom or dad say ‘you need to wear a mask’ they wear a mask and other kids’ parents can tell the child, ‘listen, it’s weak to wear a mask it does nothing’ and so, unfortunately, you’re not getting educated decisions or discourse.”
