[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To me this is a chicken and egg scenario.  I would be more cautious if we were in school because my children would be getting the socialization they need.  They're not, so we traveled for holidays so they could see cousins and family.  There isn't a metric where the unions have said they will definitely open schools so I'm doing what I can to mitigate the impact this has had on my kids' social development and their emotional well-being.  If they were in school, we wouldn't have traveled.[/quote]

I agree with this. My kids have been back in school since late October and we are much more careful since then. For example, they played (outdoor) fall sports which I was totally fine with, as they were not in school and it was really the one thing we let them do. We skipped winter sports and for spring- we’ll see (again, this would be outdoor sports). We visited family over the summer (driving distance) because we had all only been at home anyway. We have not seen family in person since school started (so- no holiday visits at all).  Not saying there aren’t a few bad apples (there always are) but personally we are much more careful when the kids are in school in person, and most people we know are the same. No one wants to be the family who screws things up for everyone and causes a class quarantine. [/quote]
