I see statements like this a lot, and I have to say they don't compute to me at all. They are eerily similar to the "cancel culture" conversation that comes up whenever someone quits out of their own volition.

Who is forcing your wife to shut down her day care, and how? If a subset of parents are uncomfortable sending their kids to day care for the foreseeable future, just tell them to come back when they're comfortable. Did your wife forget that it's her daycare?

To clarify—my wife is not the owner of the daycare. A small subset of parents voiced concerns not about the children, but themselves, and raised voices until the director of the daycare shut it down. I don’t understand your point about cancel culture.

You mean like, they did not wanted to get sick themselves and that is somehow horrible from them?

Open daycare is less work for parents.
