[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am surprised that there are so many parents here saying that they do not allow their preteens or teens hang out with friends inside. My younger one has some friends that only hang out outdoors, but plenty that are fine with hanging outside with no masks or just being inside. My older one has a large group of friends who regularly see each other,  have dinner and sleepovers. All parents are on the same page. We are in the Bethesda area.[/quote]

How is that surprising? What’s surprising is that you’re teaching your children to care about themselves over others. Do you think my kids aren’t bored? Wish they could be inside with friends? We’ve taught them that the lives of healthcare workers and vulnerable populations matter more than their desire to “hang out.”  Those of us who are doing this right and choosing the hard road will never forget your selfishness.

That’s cool, trying to shame people who do the right thing. What is wrong with you? [/quote]
For the PP, it's not about doing the right thing. It's about a warming sense of self-righteousness. Back in the day, she probably would have been out there breaking liquor barrels and demanding prohibition.

There's nothing wrong with me. I just have a finely tuned BS detector. [/quote]
