Abstract

We conducted this online survey to assess the parental perspectives on remote learning, the associated stress, and school reopening during the COVID-19 pandemic. Of 2694 responses, 2032 (75.4%) parents perceived remote learning to be stressful for the child and 1902 (70.6%) for the family. The mean (SD) duration of remote learning was 3.2 (2.1) hours/day and 5.3 (1.0) days/week. Parents from 1637 (61.7%) families reported headaches and eye strain in children. Starting regular school was not acceptable to 1946 (72.2%) parents.
