[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I suspect that two of my kids have it but no way are we testing.  [/quote]

Why not? [/quote]

Because I don’t want to deal with the hassle if it’s positive. Don’t test, don’t tell us my motto [/quote]

Hassle with what?[/quote]

Whole daycare class gets stuck with a 10 day quarantine if there’s a positive test at our school. It’s not sustainable for working parents. Not to mention disruptive for kids. And totally unnecessary. Therefore, no test, no positive, no quarantine! [/quote]

Thanks for letting us know you’re trash.[/quote]

DP look you can hurl insults all you want but there are a lot of parents who think this way privately. My friend got COVID and her kids may have to quarantine for 20 days or more because she cannot isolate from her kids or spouse (no space in the house) and their quarantine starts from her last exposure to them. If her husband subsequently gets it from her but the kids do not then the clock starts again. She is very worried about losing her job as they have already missed a lot of work because the kids get colds all the time. Nanny would be tough for them logistically since they both work from home. Thankfully they have a lot of financial support but this is barely tenable for them and totally untenable for most families. Families with young children are really struggling and it's sad that nobody seems to care, all we get are insults. FU.[/quote]
