[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a kid under 12, this means that my kid cannot enter any indoor areas until the vaccine is approved for under 12s.  Real sociopathic stuff from the “public health” folks. [/quote]

Oh FFS.  Kids under 12 are not at serious risk from COVID!  Have your kid wear a mask and move on.  If nothing else, that will reduce the viral load of any SARS-CoV2 floating around, and they'll be even less likely to get sick.

I don't get why you put mom to three.  Most mom's to three are pretty checked out and stopped caring, like you.  Its good you have spare kids just incase one gets/dies of covid but for the rest of us with less kids, its an issue.  You can minimize covid but you are why many of us don't [b]feel safe[/b].  Mine will not be going anywhere indoors, seeing friends or family or much else because many people lack good judgement and don't care who they put at risk, like you.[/quote]

Ahh...you see, that's the problem.

You feeling safe, and you being safe, are two entirely different things.

Last year, we were all responsible for each other to be safe.  But now, we are safe.

Your neighbors may are not responsible for you FEELING safe.  Your irrational feelings are your own problem[/quote]

Plus One Hundred Billion.

Some people will never "feel" safe again. That does not mean that they are NOT safe.  And I "feel" very, very sorry for this PP's kids. [/quote]

I'm the mom to three and, yeah, I don't hover over my kids or keep them in glass boxes like PP because, newsflash, *that's not good for them*.  I put mom to three because that's three kids with different needs and social groups to consider.  Our family absolutely prioritizes health and safety - which is why DH and I are fully vaccinated, and why our kids are pros at wearing masks at school/daycare - and we also prioritize SCIENCE and being able to contextualize risk appropriately.  I'm not sacrificing my kids' long-term mental health over a disease with a vanishingly small risk to them, but hey, you go for it, PP.

Don't get me started on the "feeling" safe nonsense.[/quote]

If you are following science you would keep your kids masked and be more careful.  You have THREE kids with three different social groups all in school and other activities plus socializing outside of school.  That is the problem, not solution.  Your kids mental health will not be compromised if they have to cut back during a health pandemic.  The issue is you want to dump them on other people and not have to deal with them at home so you don't want to change your lifestyle.  It is not a small risk to them.  You only care about your health, not your kids or other people.  Sad you are teaching your kids those values.[/quote]
