[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My 5 y/o isn’t sad yet, but I’m sad for him because young kids should be at school learning, having play dates, looking forward to their birthday party, traveling to see grandparents, etc. Not stuck at home with too much screen time while mom and dad scramble to keep generating an income stream. So I’m sad for him because he has no understanding yet that this is going to last a long time and I know after possibly months of this, it’s going to be really hard on him. He’s a social kid who always wants to be active and around others. I haven’t had the heart yet to tell him t-ball is canceled because he has been obsessing over the season staring since before Christmas. Who in the world wouldn’t be bummed about dashing their child’s excitement about something because of a pandemic that still has a lot of unknowns.

Is this the end of the world? No. Are there people suffering worse issues (lay offs/illness)? Of course. Will we do our best to remain positive and try to reach him resiliency? Absolutely.

But that doesn’t mean it’s not a sad, crappy situation.[/quote]

Your problem is lack of childcare. Find a responsible HS or college aged babysitter.[/quote]
