Properly manage risks? People are dining indoors now (without any distancing requirements) and schools are open...riddle me that.  You do understand that COVID risk is age stratified right? If a 65 year old [b][u]can[/u][/b] eat indoors, why can't a 7 year old?  That 65 year old, even if triple vaxxed, has a higher risk than the 7 year old. This is all illogical and irrational and so are your arguments that eating indoors last summer somehow made schools close. What a jump.[/quote]

Just because you CAN doesn't mean you SHOULD.

There are things we can do to reduce community transmission and you are pushing for the OPPOSITE.

Stop being spiteful and let kids eat outdoors FFS. We've had great weather so not even sure why this is a complaint.

COVID will be here forever, and there are vaccines available. Putting onerous burdens on only kids is absolutely absurd.  Considering how effective vaccines are, counting cases at this point is so ridiculous.

But if people want to do these things on their own, have at it.  It's the point though that you're forcing your own very warped view of morality down our kids' throats. Avoidance of a virus that will be here for the rest of our lives at all costs is a few Arlingtonian's version of bible-thumping, evangelical Christianity (both think they must force them on other people, whether they want it or not).[/quote]
Gosh, is your kid really such a privileged snowflake that he or she can't eat outside in dry mid Atlantic weather?  You consider being outside when it's in the 40s to be "onerous"?  Get some perspective.[/quote]

DP, but... why? There's no reason to keep doing it when it's uncomfortable and we have vaccines. [/quote]
