Parents balk over toddler interviews by mask police. If California authorities wanted to know Aspen Leaf Preschool's masking policy, all they had to do was look at the school's website. Instead, they conducted what the school's owner called a "simultaneous, multi-school raid" at Aspen Leaf's three locations to check on student masking and question preschoolers about their experiences.
Since last summer, the San Diego preschool has not made children wear masks. "We were open the whole pandemic about not masking children and the reasons why," owner Howard Wu told Fox News. "The policy was on our website. Put simply, the mask guidance says children can NOT mask when eating and sleeping. In full day child care that's 3 hours, so masking at other times offers no health benefit. All the families (except 1 in January) supported the policy."
