Your still going to find basic spoken language acquisition happens at roughly the same rate across cultures. Sure, expectations around learning milestones are subjective but we’re talking about school closures in the US anyway.
You aren’t pointing to any evidence that peer socialization isn’t really important.
- naasking 4y agoYou haven't pointed to any evidence that it is important either, and that's what I asked for. The other poster rightly pointed out some citations demonstrating that the evidence for this conclusion is effectively non-existent. Absent any evidence I have no reason to accept your assertion that children "require" such interactions, particularly since it makes no sense to me. As I said, positive human interactions are clearly essential as the negative effects of isolation are dramatic, but I see no reason why peer interactions specifically are essential and there's no comparably clear, strong signal as with isolation.
