To my surprise, kids are complying nicely with this new school schedule. Unsurprisingly, this is much harder for the parents trying to do both their job and being a kid teacher. Liking it or not, this is going to be our life for the coming weeks, but for our long exactly? As I am writing these lines (Feb 6,2020), international schools in Beijing are officially closed until February 17, in Shanghai the re-opening is supposed to happen on March 2d, while in Hong Kong the date has been already pushed back to March 9th . As the situation is evolving every day, chances that schools re-open later in March are getting higher every minute.
