Parents across America are bracing for a go-it-alone school year.

Raising children has always been a community endeavor, and suddenly the village that parents relied on is gone. It’s taking a toll on parents’ careers, families’ well-being and children’s education. A new survey for The New York Times has found just 1 in 5 families will have any in-person help, leaving parents feeling stressed and stranded.

“I’m only one human being, and I just can’t give everything to supporting 20 other families and children while I’m trying to support my own children,” said a mother of 2 children, in Portland, Oregon.

80% of parents who are both working remotely during the pandemic will also be handling child care and education, according to the survey, answered by a nationally representative group of 1,081 parents from August 4 to 8.

“Here’s the reality,” said a mother in Oakland, California. “The moms are doing it.”

Parents of all races — those living in urban, suburban and rural America; those who have babies, elementary schoolers and teenagers — say they’re highly stressed, with few options other than to take it all on themselves.
