So now you’re going to change the definition of denier to suit your needs. Ok. If that helps you sleep at night. I had Covid. I know many people who have had it. I fully believe it exists, and has impacted many people. But for the majority of people it is no big deal. It really isn’t. Acknowledging this in no way makes me a Covid denier. But I truly understand it does give you some sense of control and power to think that. But FYI, you’re wrong. |
Yes yes, I think you’re on to something. Looks like about 85% of the US (those of us who have moved on) are super shitty parents, and couldn’t care less about their kids. The other 15% are lucky enough to be in the same superior parenting category as you. How do you do it, truly? My poor poor kids would like to know. Can you share some tips? Would really help the rest of us who clearly want absolutely nothing to do with our kids. |
We have one family in our neighborhood with twin girls. Virtual academy. Pulled them out of girl scouts. No soccer or sports. They play in the backyard together. That's it. Meanwhile, the rest of the neighborhood kids are up and down the block on bikes and scooters and playing tag. Those parents absolutely have stolen their girl's childhoods. And we've asked; there is no medical reason for their caution. At this point, it feels like they just doubling down because to do otherwise would be to admit that the past 2 years have been for nothing |
I think that's a factor contributing to some people posting all doom and gloom. They need for it to all be true to internally reconcile how much they've given up. |
This. 100%. |
You sound pretty terrible, especially to demand to know why or if someone has health issues. Its none of your business. Maybe they don't like you. Good for them. |
Nothing more to ask. You are a horrible person and really selfish. Why have kids if you cannot bother to test them or keep them home when sick? So, now a lot of other families may get covid thanks to you. |
DP Who said anyone demanded anything? A simple question is not a demand. |
Geez PPP didn’t you know that there would be a worldwide pandemic in 2020 before you had kids? And you should have known that you couldn’t be bothered to test them incessantly, therefore you shouldn’t have had kids? Never change, DCUM, never change. |

Is anyone answering the question?
My high school senior was out of school for a week. Had a really bad sore throat for maybe 3-4 days, and a headache the first couple days. Tired. |
Plenty of people did at first. Then the fearmongers arrived to discount everybody's mild experiences. |
Lol. Where did I say I demanded it? In fact the conversation went like this: "Hey, we're having a small outdoor birthday party for DD and would love to have your girls there." "Oh, thanks for including us. They definitely miss Larla. But we are trying to stay very cautious so unfortunately we must decline" "No problem. I totally understand. We have to take some extra precautions because my mom has asthma, so we are always extra cautious before we see" "Yeah. Fortunately, we don't have any health issues. We just want to be careful." So, sure, its possible they just didn't want to share their medical history with us. But its more likely they just fell victim to the fear-monger. I mean, come on, in what world do you think someone would "demand" to know a person's medical history. Youre nuts |
+1 I shared that my DS had a very mild course and was advised to get a full check up and cardiac work up, because people were dropping like flies from covid. I mean, come on. |
Have has anyone ever told you it's none of your business? Why would you even be so entitled to someone else's privacy to ASK a question like that? No one needs to be proven right about anything. People live different lives. Sorry that other people might life differently than you do. You have no idea or right to judge it. Get that through your head. No one stole anyones childhood just because *you* think thats how other people should raise their families and live their lives. Leave people alone. |
You’re overly defensive. Stealing your kids’ childhoods too? |
