Let's try unpacking the case you must be imagining to arrive at that expectation. If the kid had any friends, they wouldn't be isolated when school was closed, so we must be imagining a kid with no friends. If we're imagining a kid with no friends, they must not be getting on very well at school. Well, so much for the expectation, eh?

Depends if the Uber drivers, mum and dad are available to do the drop offs and pick ups.

If they have friends that they never see any more, because school is closed, then they're isolated, right? And before you say "they should just get together", well, they used to get together five days a week, and they probably won't do that, even if they're ignoring the "socially isolate" part.
