A Place with No Time: Re-Conceptualising Child–Adult Relations during ‘Homeschooling’ in the 2020 Pandemic

ABSTRACT. We have heard the warming planet’s calls for sustaining rhythms through many events. COVID-19 is one such song. We have returned home with our families to our places in a mandated ‘lockdown’. Competitive economics are troubled, and trouble our world with unsustaining patterns. An urgent, convergent conversation about how ‘we’ (writers entwining) might touch on sustenance more begins between our two families. The children amongst us want to thread into these convolutions too. pp. 65–81
