Pretty sure my kids will not have a semblance of normal childhood socializing again

There were plenty of asymptomatic cases before delta. That’s the whole problem with COVID is it’s unpredictability. We will have to see if greater transmission in vaccinated results in great hospitalization and death. The markets sure are worried. |

Two years of childhood experiences robbed. And some people want to take it into year three. Crazy! |

My sibling lives in Texas. After being down for the past month plus, cases are rising steadily again in their large county. But hey, let’s just be dumb like Abbott, stick our heads in the sand and pretend everything’s fine. Yaaaaaaay! |

My best friend’s healthy thin 11 year old was hospitalized for a week with COVID. Keep being smug and glib though. |

The markets have no medical insight. They’re worried about an overreactive European lockdown. |

Wait, the kid is 2 - they’ve only HAD 2 birthdays. Why is it so extraordinary that those first two birthdays were celebrated only with the parents? Not everyone always does it up for birthdays even pre-pandemic. Not everyone lives in the same town as their extended family. |

| Don’t worry about the variant until we know more about it. There have been a lot of “scary” variants that didn’t become dominant. |

Saying no kids have died of covid in MoCo is misleading as we've been very fortunate. What happens when one does? Our schools were not in person which probably played a big part in it. However, many kids have died of covid in the use and many many more around the world. Approx. 700 in the US died. And, how many kids have lost their parents due to covid? Right, you don't care. You can justify it how ever you want and not be responsible about it, but that's really too bad for your kids you cannot set a good example for them I would hope you have locks on your widows, I'd hope you use car seats, seat belts and when you purchase a new car get all the safety features. I'd also hope that your kids only swim with a skilled adult or lifeguard around... precautious in everything you said are important which makes death avoidable. A drowning in a bathtub is completely avoidable if a adult is supervising. But, again, it takes a responsible adult. Back to the covid discussion, which you aren't capable of. |

They will not worry, even if a child dies... as long as its not their child they really don't care. And, then they will put on a fake concern, donate to the go fund me and go on living life as normal. |

| My kids have had a normal childhood since fall of 2020. They haven’t had Covid, but some of their friends have and they’ve been just fine. |

No one has robbed your kids of anything except you. You can make the best of the situation and instead of dumping your kids on others you could actually spend time with them and create wonderful family memories. |

My kids were allowed to play outside with friends from March 2020 to March 2021, and they did a lot. Once adults got vaccinated we decided kids were so low risk we could allow indoor play dates again. Good luck.
Now my husband, our 12 year old, and me are fully vaccinated. I guess I’ll get a booster sooner than later - I only just became eligible. Now our younger two recently got their first shots. I basically feel like we don’t have any high risk conditions that we are aware of and I should believe in vaccines so we can do what we want. |

The first birthday party I had was huge. Family flew in from all across the country. It was a great time and a mini-reunion all rolled up in one. Its very important for many people and many cultures. |

I’m talking about the handful of posters here still keeping their kids under house arrest. |
