[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So excited for Wednesday!! No more masks!!!

Funny though it's just in time for spring allergies. [/quote]

Looks like my school is going to keep masking, by parent demand. And we're stuck because no way am I going to discourage my kid from masking when they will be the only one and labeled by other people's family's as irresponsible.

I found out today that most parents in my kids class don't even want them to remove masks outside. I am starting to feel crazy. In two years of Covid, all evidence indicates that Covid does not spread outside except in packed, confined spaces (which recess is not). I understand the fear about unmasking indoors a little better, but I'm still amazed that apparently we are the only family in class that has some concerns about masking very young kids for so long. The kids are trying to learn to read, and still just figuring out social cues and interactions.

Given what a minority we are in this situation, I don't see what fighting it will do beyond make our family a target for criticism and ostracize our kid. So we're going to go along with it. But it's not right. I can't believe we're at this point.[/quote]

OMG. I might lose my mind.[/quote]
