[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some stores still do seniors and people with disabilities hours. Maybe go during those hours?[/quote]

No! Don’t take a maskless child to senior hour! This is a terrible suggestion![/quote]

OP here. Yeah, I wouldn't do that.  Realistically I think it would be fine, but I know those people are going to be particularly freaked out.[/quote]

Boy OP, I feel for you. You have all the anxiety-ridden, mask-shaming, know-nothings coming on here, not even answering your question. I am a 50-something mom with older teenagers, so I cannot put myself in your shoes. But I would not give you and/or your child a second glance if he wasn't wearing a mask. In fact, it is your right to take him out without a mask so you can do what you need to do. I guess you'll just have to be tough and ignore those who stare you down in judgement. It's their problem, not yours. Best of luck and here's hoping we will all be in a better place soon.[/quote]

Stop with the “your rights” crap.  We wear masks to protect ourselves and others.  Why do you think your right to go maskless trump’s my right to live?  Why does your child’s inability to wear a mask trump a store-employees need to work to feed his/her children?

OP, I have to keep my immune-suppressed child home.  You can, too.  [/quote]

You know what else you need to do? Get some anti-anxiety mediation and gain a better understanding of what kind of risk a maskless 3-year-old poses to you or anybody else. Your irrational fear does not negate a mother's right simply to run errands with her 3-year-old son. Get a grip.[/quote]
