I agree that this is a poor idea, involving both hygiene and safety. And what kind of jackass would leave a pile of dog poo in a store aisle? Seriously? Part of the problem is that store personnel (or bus drivers, etc.) are not allowed to ask if an animal is a service animal – a policy that has led to widespread abuse. BTW, so-called “emotional support” animals are NOT protected under any law, including the ADA. IMO, all true service animals should wear a vest, tag, or some easily visible official designation as such, thereby clearing up any confusion. No I.D., no access. In this age of entitlement, that means that many dog owners would tie their animals up outside the store – which creates a whole new set of issues, most illegal.

aa: Yes there are non-profits doing a lot of the heavy lifting to identify suitable sites for dog parks in this area. They are running into a lot of red tape but are doing an awesome job of surveying locations and putting it in front of city leadership. Check out WSDPC- they are great folks! https://westseattleblog.com/2022/02/another-dog-park-for-west-seattle-heres-whos-actually-working-on-it/

Gina: Most school playgrounds and fields are actually attached Seattle parks that the school has privileged access to and are patrolled accordingly.

What makes Madison Middle School different is that the school actually owns the field so it isn’t patrolled as regularly. To request patrols, Animal control needs 10 days of reports to justify it. Madison Middle School was placed on elevated status in the fall of 2021 (and I believe again in Spring 2022) when it came to their attention that there were often 25-30+ dogs on the field at a time after hours and after receiving enough reports to justify it. They sent out a lot of citations and skipped warnings because of how bad the issue was.

Unfortunately, the Schools don’t have the enforcement arm necessary to enforce a dog ban (which is in place at this location, not at all locations) so they rely on Animal Control to enforce off-leash laws instead. School staff and leadership are understandably frustrated at this situation, especially when they themselves are ignored when they ask people to take their dogs off the field.

What is worse is that several of the off-leash dog owners that use this location are willing to escalate against those who confront them about their behavior or testify in court against them (as witnesses subpoenaed by the city).

The community needs to do something, or the school needs to make dog park hours so parents know when it is safe to take their kids there to play.

• This reply was modified 4 years, 1 month ago by YiLu.

[Gina]

What makes this weirder is that someone in the school district has let it slip that all the school playgrounds and fields are considered to be Seattle parks and Parks and Recreation are responsible for upkeep and enforcement! Which explains nothing about this thread but is something else to throw into the mix.

[wseakell]

Hello, I started the other chain and want to keep this discussion going. My dear friend is a Speech Language Pathologist and wrote this well-thought out letter we’re trying to get out to the public. I’d also recommend reading this article published today: https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2022/01/kids-masks-schools-weak-science/621133/?utm_content=edit-promo&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=the-atlantic&utm_source=twitter&utm_term=2022-01-26T13%3A25%3A59&s=01

From a local Speech Therapist who wants to remain anonymous for fear of the backlash she’ll get from voicing very valid, logical concerns:

I am writing to voice my serious concerns about the indefinite orders for young children to wear face masks to participate in society. I am writing as a parent of a 4 year old currently enrolled in a preschool that requires them (as well as a newborn son who I hope will never have to wear one). In addition, I write as a licensed school-based speech-language pathologist, with concerns on the effects of prolonged facial covering on speech, language, and social development for children.

Please first note that the United States, and particularly King County/Washington State, is an outlier in our approach to masking children. Consider that the World Health Organization does not recommend masks until age 6, and only selectively for children up to 11. Many countries do not mandate or even recommend masks for children under 12. Consider that many parts of our own country do not mask school children of any age, instead instituting a masking-optional policy.

Even if our current mask policies were clearly beneficial in protecting children from infection and preventing transmission (which is unlikely, given scarce quality, real-world evidence for cloth masks under the best of conditions [e.g. worn properly, not soaked in saliva as children’s often are]), we have done a terrible job of calculating the benefit to cost ratio of such a policy. When we thought perhaps children would wear masks for 2 weeks, or 2 months, perhaps it is forgivable that we failed to do this analysis. But we have now reached the 2 year mark of this pandemic, without any serious analysis of whether or not masking children has a net positive, and without any explicit “off-ramp” metrics; how long will we subjugate the children to these measures? We have reached a point in the pandemic where it no longer makes sense to continue untested mitigations without any regard for the downsides.

We have to ask, Why are we still masking children? Is it to protect them from Covid? If so, it is beyond evident that Covid poses an astonishingly small risk to children; this is particularly true of the Omicron variant now dominant in our area. Is it to protect the adults around them? If so, remember that vaccinations and boosters are effective against severe disease and are free/available to all who want them. Is it to reduce community spread? If so, please see studies that show real-world use of cloth masks are ineffective at significantly reducing transmission (among adults; children are less likely to even wear them properly). Why can adults spend hours unmasked in restaurants and bars and sporting events, while we make the children mask for hours during their most pivotal years of development?

Now consider all of the possible downsides to forcing children to wear masks for hours on end, in school and community settings, including effects on speech/language development, socialization, mental health, physical health, etc.

As a speech therapist in the local schools, I am absolutely baffled about how to provide meaningful speech therapy to children when neither of us can see one another’s mouth. How to teach a sound when they cannot see a competent speaker model it? Now consider an entire generation of children who may be more at risk of speech sound delays and language delays simply because they have been denied copious modeling due to universal face masking. As a speech therapist, I also treat social communication disorders, which includes difficulty with social aspects such as nonverbal communication (facial expressions, eye contact, body language) and interacting with peers (turn-taking, responding to questions). Humans are deeply social creatures and we have evolved to communicate so much nonverbally. We now have a generation of children who rarely see their peers’ faces, might often misunderstand their peers; tone of speech, etc. Regarding physical health, could children’s damp cloth masks harbor microorganisms harmful to their health? Could it cause them to touch their face more often, spreading other illnesses more? Could it restrict oxygenation in any way, when worn for hours on end?

Finally, two anecdotes to illustrate the impact to my son’s social emotional learning at school:
1. We were talking about masks and my son chimed in, “You know what is silly? When they take our picture at school, they tell us to smile but it’s silly because they can’t see our mouth.”
2. When the class pictures were taken and distributed, my son couldn’t recognize any of the people in the picture. He had only seen them masked for months.

I think that we as a society have completely failed to correctly calculate the cost benefit analysis of mitigation strategies for our children. Perhaps it is easy to say with the benefit of hindsight, but we have an opportunity to change moving forward.
I do not intend to trivialize the serious nature of this pandemic, nor the risks to certain demographics, nor the children who have gotten ill and even tragically died from this disease. But it is myopic and detrimental to focus on these risks without also thinking of all the other harms our mitigation efforts have wrought. This email alone may be inconsequential in decision-making for our preschool, or our city, or county, or state, but I can’t live with myself any longer without having tried to change things for my children and others. I expect decision-makers to say, “It’s out of our hands / it’s coming down from the board of health / it’s coming from the governor / we’re waiting for official guidance” – to them I say, History does not look kindly on those who are just following orders. How long will you wait to stand up for our children on your own accord? Please, be brave, be logical, be compassionate to the children who have already lost part of their fleeting childhood forever to the adults’ efforts to keep them “safe.”

Thank you – please speak up to local politicians so we can end this mandate as soon as humanly possible.
