This has to be done. As a parent I can remember sitting in school board meetings until long after the witching hour to have my say or see the result of something. Some parents took young children with them to avoid the need for babysitters, and some children were busy doing homework. Then parents had to leave before they wanted to due to getting the kids to bed. Not the way it should/could be done nowadays.

Zip about in person City of PA council meetings resuming. I find “virtual” invites a lack of human participation — it’s entirely restrictive, unfair & exclusionary to the electronically disadvantaged . Yet. I suppose ideally someone in Kabul could listen in.
