[quote=Anonymous]Move to the far out suburbs, OP. I have the opposite experience out here: we are more socially isolated than almost anyone else I know anymore and I don't think we are really that extreme. We WFH and our kids are homeschooled but we go to parks/playgrounds (masked) and/or hiking, biking, some type of outdoor activity almost every day. We meet other kids/families at playgrounds/parks or in each other's backyards and the kids play together (masked). We have been apple picking, to the pumpkin patch, to nature centers for outdoor nature classes (all masked), and we are planning on trick or treating. Most of the families I know have parents back at work and/or kids back in in-person school, indoors play dates, indoor social get togethers for adults, many kids are back to playing sports, going to dance classes or karate or whatever, swim lessons. We have been left out because we are not willing to participate in any of the indoors get togethers yet. And with the frequency that many we know are going out and doing things indoors, I'm starting to think we actually will have to restrict our activities even more because I don't feel comfortable socializing even outdoors/masked with people who are getting together with others indoors/unmasked.[/quote]
