[quote=Anonymous]OP - I get it, I do.  I have a 14 year old (who looks and acts like he’s 6) with a rare syndrome. He also has sensory issues.  I started practicing with him at home and taking out for very short trips to the store during his break at school when it’s not crowded (never on weekends) to get one random item and build up from there.  If I’m doing a big grocery shopping or other errands where I may have to wait and definitely on weekend when it’s usually busier,  I leave him at home.  He has learned to wear the mask although it slips off his nose and I need to constantly remind him to cover his nose.  People have been very accepting I think bc they see I’m trying - and trust me I always have my radar on for snide looks or whispers!

Now as we’re going into a more restrictive time, I’ll probably leave him home more but I initially did it because he’s the type who gets used to being inside and doesn’t want to leave the house so I decided it was necessary to keep getting him out in the community.  [/quote]
