[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op here. I'm real, this is real. Pp who said something about a misalignment of values... You're spot on. And the covid vaccine is one of them.

I can't and won't just take kids to get vaccinated on my own. It'd be like an act of war. I'd rather decide to divorce and do that before acting unilaterally because that's one of the things that's aggravating me about his decisions.

I personally do think he's gotten sucked into the conspiracy theories but of course he would say he's done his own research/financial interests mean the info we're getting is tainted/etc. He is smart, educated, intellectual. We just do not agree and have a hard time respecting each other's opinions, for obvious reasons... So how do you make a marriage like this work? Is it doomed not to?[/quote]

ok, but if your child catches COVID and gets sick or worse, you'll instantly regret this decision. I realize the risk for kids is low, but it's not impossible and there are document cases of kids dying. Again, not many. Don't let your kid get caught in the middle of the war between you and your husband. [/quote]
Op here. His response to this is, "ok so if the kids get a bad reaction to the vaccine then would it be your fault?" And then goes on his tirade of all the evidence that the vaccines are doing more harm than good. Obviously evidence I find questionable. But he finds evidence of covids effects questionable. This is an impossible argument to have.

And to the other pp who asked...yes it's not just covid. It's stop the steal, blm, LGBTQ, every hot controversial issue you can think of. We're on opposite ends. It's starting to extend to other vaccines too now.

What stops me from leaving is the kids. Will it be easier for me to leave yes. Will it be easier for them or easier for co-parenting? I don't see how. [/quote]

The only thing I have left to say is--SOMEBODY has to be the adult and be the critical thinker. I know this is hard. This won't stop with the vaccine as you noted. So what are you going to do. Please don't let your kids model bad behaviors. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE. [/quote]
