[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DD (6) thinks things will go back to normal soon. She obviously can't grasp the full impact of the situation yet, and thinks that [b]one day she'll be able to see her grandparents, not a wear a mask, travel, hug friends, attend school.[/b] I've been very non-committal about the future because I don't want to negatively affect her mental health, but at some point she'll need to understand that things are different now and won't ever go back. I'm actually wondering if I'm doing her a disservice by putting it off, but I'm dreading it.

Anyway, how and when do you plan on having this conversation?[/quote]
Um, why on earth do you think your 6 y.o. will never do these things again?![/quote]

Say it with me now: new normal. [/quote]

This is the dumbest phrase ever.

Things will go back to old normal. Some of you have no perspective. I bet it is the same people who refused to believe in February that this was going to happen. No ability to judge the future. It is really weird and crazy. [/quote]
