Berlin (dpa / bb) - The latest resolutions on the consequences for daycare centers from the corona pandemic are met with resistance from parents.
The state parents' committee for day care centers in Berlin (leak) described the return to emergency care in the facilities as not acceptable.
Instruments from the early days of the pandemic would be used without adapting them to the actual circumstances, which also included test options, the leak said again on Sunday.
There is no justification for closing daycare centers.
"Rather, it is an arbitrary measure to reduce the general incidence, in which, for the sake of simplicity, falls back on the group that cannot represent their interests externally," it said.
Because of the third corona wave, the Senate decided on Thursday that daycare centers should go back to emergency operation from Tuesday and thus only offer limited care.
The daycare centers are formally closed again.
They should offer emergency care for children from families who are urgently dependent on it and in which at least one parent works in a particularly important, so-called system-relevant occupation.

Single parents who cannot organize any other childcare option and parents whose children require childcare for special educational reasons should also be able to take advantage of the offer.
A similar regulation existed before until childcare was restarted in March.
