I suggest you start wearing a mask near your infant nephew. And wash your hands diligently. A fragile baby coming out of the NICU can catch all kind of things, so it makes more sense to do it that way than prevent your child from all the normal activities of her age. She can, of course, mask at the party, but it makes little sense given she's going to take it off to eat. Get boosters as soon as they come out for the safety of everyone involved.

Masking is not going to work to protect your nephew or grandmother if your child removes his mask to eat cake and ice cream. You’ll need to talk to your child about keeping the mask on - maybe you can ask for cake to go.

It’s none of yo business dear

I see families out all the time
Now where one person has a mask on. I assume they are sick. It may be none of my business but still good to know.

if people post the things they are doing that don’t make much sense on the internet people are bound to point it out.

Not the OP (I am the PP who wrote that). My kids think grandma is a more important part of their life then the location they eat cake in. If your kids bake family so little you can’t relate that’s really sad.

The whole “they need to live their lives just stop seeing the disabled people!” Nastiness completely ignore the fact that people with disabilities are part of other people’s lives.

Someone should speak up for the kid who now has to sit at a birthday party and watch his friends eat cake.

Why isn't it possible? I don't get it. Is going to a birthday party different than going to school? I know the answer: no.

OP, it's totally fine if your kid masks at the birthday party.

However, if you have any expectation that the host will *enforce* your kid's masking (remind them to put it back on after eating, etc), that is not reasonable.

Yes people can’t participate with a mask on it prevents oxygen flow to the brain which causes paralysis

At this phase in the pandemic, I think it makes more sense for the child to mask when seeing grandma and test before seeing her, than to have the child mask during his daily activities.

Are they homeschooled? If OP's child was homeschooled, she would have said so I think.

Many people have answered this - it’s about the pizza, cake etc. This is a contained home party, not a large school cafeteria where the masking kid can space away from others to have lunch.

But as to Q2: No! I would not be offended. There are kids in DD's class at school who still mask and I assume they have any of a number of reasons for doing so, and it's not really my business. I would never be upset if a child (or adult) chose to mask in my house. Entirely your call.

+1. I wouldn’t be offended. I would appreciate a little info about what to do about eating/drinking from the parent and would offer for the kids to go outside for a bit to eat if the weather allowed. Actually, OP, what does your child do at school with eating and drinking?
