NP but it’s been HARD to be a parent to ages 2-5 for a long time, and we feel forgotten.  [/quote]

Agreed.  Especially because it seems like the county especially has been talking out both sides of their mouth about this- reluctance to update quarantine guidelines because kids under 5 can't mask properly, but still recommending they wear them.  It's like none of these people have little kids themselves.[/quote]

I wish someone with decision making power would just explain whether they genuinely believe that masking young children (1) prevents the transmission of COVID and/or (2) is so unlikely to result in developmental harms that this risk is not even worth considering. I am absolutely livid and do not intend to vote for anyone at the local level that does not address these questions.[/quote]Irs not just kids, but 90 percent of adults in Montgomery county still wear masks inside even after it was lifted.   I don’t but it seems everyone else does. [/quote]

So what? It's their choice. And while there's an argument to be made that masking impacts adults' mental health, I hope (perhaps foolishly) that folks can understand that the likely risks for young children, who are in key stages of speech and social development, are much, much higher.[/quote]
