Abstract
Grounded in the frameworks of motherwork, linguistic motherwork, and Family Language Policy, this critical ethnographic study examined how a group of mothers supported their children’s linguistic and educational development amid shifting school conditions during the COVID-19 pandemic. Although online learning increased their access and positioned them as co-teachers, the mothers faced an overload shaped by intersecting social, linguistic, and institutional demands. As schools continue to recover in the post-pandemic era, these findings call for reimagining family engagement to decenter schools and to listen to all families without essentializing their multifaceted identities. Centering diverse parental experiences disrupts damage-centered narratives of learning loss and reveals how families sustained learning beyond dominant models of school-based involvement.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
