[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am not comfortable with the risk for my 5 yr old.  It’s not about being a martyr - I have to follow my gut feeling that tells me it’s too early.  [/quote]

Cool. But the risk is way lower than putting your kid in the car so it’s a bit ridiculous. Risk decisions should be based on reality. [/quote]

So because one thing is a risk (driving) I should take additional risks? How does that begin to make sense?!  “Since this might kill you, I’m going to other things that also might kill you.”

NP here and that is such a stupid argument!

I don’t think you understand how risk assessments and comparisons are made. [/quote]

I absolutely understand how risk assessments are made.  However it’s a moot point in weighing additional risk especially with such an unknown commodity.

How can anyone possibly assign risk assessments with an ever changing landscape and mutating virus?  And practically, as a parent, why take anymore risk than necessary?  [/quote]
