Get out with your kids. This isn’t going anywhere. It’s fine to go out to eat or to a movie. Pick a time when the restaurants and theaters won’t be crowded. There were maybe ten people in the theater the last time we saw a movie.

Living your life in fear is much more harmful than omicron is.

Oh Jesus, stop already with the “living your life in fear” CRAP. Is wearing a seatbelt living your life in fear? Parents of young, unvaccinated children are taking necessary precautions to keep our little kids from getting covid in any mutation. That is living your life as a good parent not living your life in fear.

No one needs to go to the fricking movies or a restaurant. Grow the f up.

Absolutely. I have grown up kids and we are not going anywhere (well, except my HS kid going to school) and waiting for the surge to die down. We have a married niece who is pregnant and she is taking a lot of precaution to prevent exposure. I really feel bad for people with small kids because these children are unvaccinated and that is cause for concern. BUT, even with grown up kids, we are taking precautions because DH and I are in our 50s. Yes, we are vaxxed, boosted, wear masks --- but we are also privildged that we can provide for the basics (roof, food, med, heat) from the safety of our home.

OP has FOMO, but the truth is that everyone (who is sensible) is taking precautions.

Who NEEDS to go out to dinner and the movies?’! This is truly laughable. The Me-Me-Me Generation of Parents strikes again.

Umm do you know anything about how children were raised in previous generations? If anything this generation is way too kid centric. Also, this is the infants and toddlers thread. STFU boomer. You created this mess.

Yeah, I’m pretty sure previous generations did not go to bars and movies if there was a possibility of infecting their babies with a virus.

And I’m only 29, angry little person, but try again.

Do you think people were not going to restaurants and bars during the flu season? Measles outbreak? I can’t believe you wrote what you wrote

NP here and covid is completely different. But I guarantee you that during the Spanish Flu epidemic of 1919 parents were not going to bars. I can’t believe you just wrote what you did. Think!

Care to explain how it’s different for OP’s kids and her vaccinated husband?

Seriously? Okay, because her children are not vaccinated, vaccinated adults can still spread covid to unvaccinated children, and going to a fricking bar or indoor restaurant is not exactly essential to survival or happiness. We’re in the middle of a surge of a global virus that’s still mutating.

Why does this have to be explained to you over and over again? Honestly, why? Do you even have little kids so young they can’t be vaccinated? Do you care about them at all?

NP. I have two kids that can’t be vaccinated. Everything I do, every day of my life is for my kids. We live in south Florida with thousands of other families in our area living similar lifestyles to ours. We see friends and family, go to restaurants, vacations, school, movies, bowling, play dates, carnivals, etc. I’ve done everything I can to give my kids the most normal, happy childhood I can give them. After about 2 months of lockdown, my 2.5 year old at the time actually felt depressed. How is that possible, with such a young child? He would wake up and say, mommy I don’t want to get out of bed. I just want to sleep all day. He would take his blanket to the couch and lie there. I had activities, games, a big backyard etc but I fundamentally changed what he knew his entire life, which was mommy and me, play dates, family, trips etc. If I kept that up for two years, I can’t imagine the 5 year old he would be today. I am so thankful we live in an area that has handled the virus the way it did. I am also a democrat, and vaccinated (will not vaccinate my kids). We’ve never caught Covid fwiw. I feel confident in my decisions as a parent to my children. I’m sorry for you that you think parents like myself don’t care for our kids.

What does that tell you, PP?

Not PP, but I posted earlier. I am in DC and jealous of the PP in Florida. I have been doing more or less the same, but our weather is definitely worse. Most kids are doing stuff now. It’s only the DCUM paranoid moms who are ruining their kids’ lives and insult strangers on an anonymous board. I feel bad for THEM

Continue proving my point. You don’t need to live like this. My kids go to museums, aquariums, europe, South America, skiing, etc. They do sports, see friends, etc. We are not big restaurant people, but have done that too with the kids on occasions. We love our life. I hope my youngest will be able to be vaccinated in April so he won’t need ti quarantine anymore (like the rest of us).

NP I am as liberal as they come. First in line for both shots and booster. I just had covid, after being extremely cautious for two years. My two toddlers just had it. It was a BLIP. We were sick for a day, like a cold. Yeah, I think it's safe to go back to restaurants and the movies. Or do you just want to live like this forever? Why are you scared of getting this if you are vaccinated? And with the data we have about children?

You’re not alone, PP. The tantruming idiots are just louder.

Imagine being so undone at the prospect of not eating in a room full of strangers during a pandemic, or seeing the exact same movie you can see on your couch in a month. Pity them. Their lives must be so empty.

NP. I have two kids that can’t be vaccinated. Everything I do, every day of my life is for my kids. We live in south Florida with thousands of other families in our area living similar lifestyles to ours. We see friends and family, go to restaurants, vacations, school, movies, bowling, play dates, carnivals, etc. I’ve done everything I can to give my kids the most normal, happy childhood I can give them. After about 2 months of lockdown, my 2.5 year old at the time actually felt depressed. How is that possible, with such a young child? He would wake up and say, mommy I don’t want to get out of bed. I just want to sleep all day. He would take his blanket to the couch and lie there. I had activities, games, a big backyard etc but I fundamentally changed what he knew his entire life, which was mommy and me, play dates, family, trips etc. If I kept that up for two years, I can’t imagine the 5 year old he would be today. I am so thankful we live in an area that has handled the virus the way it did. I am also a democrat, and vaccinated (will not vaccinate my kids). We’ve never caught Covid fwiw. I feel confident in my decisions as a parent to my children. I’m sorry for you that you think parents like myself don’t care for our kids.

You are a true fool and a terrible mother. I fell so sorry for your children.

You actually make me sick.

Not PP, but I posted earlier. I am in DC and jealous of the PP in Florida. I have been doing more or less the same, but our weather is definitely worse. Most kids are doing stuff now. It’s only the DCUM paranoid moms who are ruining their kids’ lives and insult strangers on an anonymous board. I feel bad for THEM

Some of you really need to step out of your bubbles.
