text: After the drop in quality of education, offering online classes would also cut into a student's life skills. Schools often try to develop students skills useful in their out of school future but with no way for teaches to meet their students these skills would be dropped from the curriculum. The three "main" life skills: collaboration, communication and leadership, all are forged in person, they are gained over a child's education with things like group projects, in person presentations in front of a class, and class elected officials. With the choice of online class, none of these would be an option for those learning from distance and would put them far behind in-school students in terms of both education and life preparedness.
