[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's hard to un-scare people once you have scared them for two years, and politics are a powerful force especially in this town, so I'm not surprised it's hard for parents and even kids to let go of masks.[/quote]

Maybe kids who lost a parent or guardian were scared of that and not a simple common sense public health measure.[/quote]

At this point their parents and guardians should be triple vaccinated and shouldn't need to burden their children with the fear of transmitting the virus to somebody vulnerable.[/quote]

At this point you can have an unmasked child so maybe you stop telling people how to feel. I’m sure you have no fears of anything and are incredibly socially adjusted and full of empathy for others.[/quote]

NP. The forever-maskers I know are overwhelmingly anxious introverts who spend way too much time on Twitter and aren’t what I’d call “socially well adjusted” but I’m sure you got lots of likes and retweets in your head for this comeback, so as long as you don’t hassle my unmasked kid for their “selfishness” or whatever the f** then I’m glad you’re happy.[/quote]

I’m the OP to this “comeback” and my kid went unmasked all day. He said it was great. I told him to do what felt comfortable and he walked to the playground masked. I picked him up I masked. He said half his friends were unmasked and half were masked.

The kids I know still masking are doing the same w their kids, letting the kids decide when they feel comfortable. But after a week of their kid is still masking they will start a nudge. One kid walked out of the school unmasked and she put the mask on to hug her dad. As her dad said “it’s her body so her choice”.

If we lived in Florida or Georgia we would all feel differently. But we are here and vaccinated and we cautiously move forward and will not shame anyone who is taking a step slower than us.[/quote]
