[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is just a rant because as we start thinking about Halloween and trick or treating I’m seeing local governments (the same ones who are opening restaurants and small venues) saying trick or treating is unsafe. While it might be a small risk, what’s the actual difference between my kids being outside in masks walking around on this day vs any other day. Also tired of seeing tons of adult pick up games of soccer/ basketball, etc meanwhile youth sports haven’t been permitted. Why are we just willing to say that kids get nothing during this pandemic, meanwhile “businesses” need it? I’m so tired of commerce and capitalism dictating what is permitted and what’s not while kids are left to languish. Outdoor masked activities for kids are crucial to the wellbeing during this time, wtf is wrong with our local leaders (a lot, I know). Between the schools continuing to stay closed despite 7+ months to figure it out, youth sports being banned I’m pissed. Trick or treating is proving to be the straw that might break my back. / end rant.

I agree totally. Why isn't the fact that the schools are closed a major issue in this election? Why isn't on the front pages of the newspapers on a daily basis? We are sacrificing a whole generation of citizens.

In Canada, the premiers of the provinces are giving daily news conferences about the fall surge and what people need to do to preserve the school year and keep the schools open. It is in the news daily.[/quote]
