[quote=Anonymous][quote=jsmith123]Yes, I do think about this. Younger DS is in in-person school this year and we've had a couple colds. I was happy, in a weird way. I feel like it's good to be "normal sick". Also, I have been much less concerned about them getting sick playing in Rock Creek or whatever. I feel like they're introducing species to their microbiomes or something.[/quote] Agree...kids getting sick is normal and while it is no fun in the moment, I have chalked it up as their immune systems are getting stronger. I have this debate all the time with my spouse as he freaks out more about for example hand washing after playing outside, whereas I don't even think about it. I prefer my child to eat some dirt, intentional or not, and only wash his hands if really dirty or after going to the bathroom.[/quote]
