Mom's viral video on the confusion surrounding school year is hilarious
If there's a silver lining in the mess that is back-to-school 2020, it's this mom's hilarious video.
Dena Blizzard, the comedian behind the popular "One Funny Mother" Facebook page, told "Good Morning America" she was inspired to produce the video when someone in her town posted to social media looking for clarification on the school schedule.
"They only made it worse," Blizzard said. "I figured parents everywhere were just as confused so I thought, 'why not make a video that makes this crystal clear, but from an administrator's perspective and in the most ridiculous way possible?'"
The video, which has been shared more than 34,000 times, covers some of the new parenting vernacular: Cohorts and hybrid schedules.
"The reaction has been overwhelmingly positive. I think we all know there’s no good answer right now. Admins and school boards are doing their best but these plans end up sounding pretty crazy," Blizzard said.
Still, she appreciates the efforts and realizes this is an unprecedented time for educators.
"I’ve always stood by our teachers and I think they are just as confused as parents and students," Blizzard said. "At the end of the day we all need to just accept we are all doing our best and find the funny in it."
