[quote=Anonymous]We completely isolated ourselves starting in March. DH and I are both working from home and are busier than ever. Our only child, a very social six-year-old boy, has been miserable with Zoom classes and virtual playdates. Until March, he really was thriving, but his behavior and attitude has really suffered since then. About 10 days ago, we caved and started allowing him to play outside each afternoon with two of his friends on the block. He is so happy and looks forward to the playdates all day. I feel guilty about exposing him (and us) to a potential risk, but I felt guiltier about keeping him isolated and away from any peers. I really do worry about the damage that could do over the long run. I assume that we'll be back to total lockdown by mid-fall, so I want him to socialize while he can. [/quote]
