“The increasing risk of infection must be countered with decisive steps at all levels. In view of the current infection situation, it is more important than ever that everyone pulls together. “
“Anyone who talks about easing Christmas and New Year’s Eve now is gambling away the future of our children. We should all accept that this year we will experience a different Christmas than usual. How so much has been different this year than usual. “
Christin Melcher also emphasizes: “Our primary goal must be to make everything possible so that children can continue to experience participation and education. But that does not mean classroom teaching at any price. We need the freedom, legal certainty and acceptance in order to enable other models of education and participation on site as required in order to be able to react individually to the infection situation. “
“In all decisions, we have to focus on the weakest: children with handicaps who may not be adequately supported at home, and all those who would have health problems and enormous psychological stress if they were to close again, as well as the many single parents.
Before curtailing children’s futures, all possible measures must be taken to curb contact. I therefore find it wrong that at the moment the impression is sometimes given that the infection process can be brought under control simply by closing schools and daycare centers. “
