Showing a good example for the kids about working class families? What good example? Risk your life for a job/school? This isn’t snow, it’s ice. You can’t just plow ice.

I get that it’s inconvenient. I’m losing my mind with my kid at home while I’m also trying to work. I can’t believe I’m about to say this, but I’d rather be in the office so I could actually unwind on my breaks rather than having her right in my ear every time I get up to try to go to the freaking bathroom. But it’s also incredibly unsafe for a whole bunch of people to be driving in this and dangerous for kids like mine who ride their bike or walk to school with cars sliding on these back streets. I understand it’s even worse for those who can’t work from home, but I think a good lesson to teach your kid is that sometimes weather happens and we have to adjust to it and shouldn’t always be on the roads.

Yup. Watching all the other college campuses evaluate dangerous conditions correctly while MSU did not and had kids getting hurt was a prime example that safety should be everyone’s first priority, no matter how annoying.
