[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I love how 2020 has exposed parents. :lol: Its all hugs and rainbows and 'children fill a void' until you actually have to take care of and watch them 24/7, 7 days a week. Now its 'I'm going to be hospitalized if you don't get them out of here'. And you wonder why the child-free and single are enjoying the pandemic so much?[/quote] No, it's until I have to take care of them and watch them 24/7, 7, while ALSO being their primary educator, while ALSO working 40-50 hours a week. If the child free and single are enjoying a pandemic where 200k of their fellow citizens have died in the past 6 months, simply so they can gloat that they aren't struggling like everyone else is, that makes them (you?) sound pretty bad. [/quote] Come back to me about 'sounds pretty bad' after parents stop demanding buildings that house over 800,000 individuals 8 hours a day in boxes and are a petri dish ready to explode the community infection rates be re-opened. Also google - White House Rose Garden Superspreader Event. Because that's exactly what happens when you get a confluence of children and adults in a room - Covid+ rates go up like a nuclear bomb went off. The D.C. infection rate increased by 66% because of that one day. https://dcist.com/story/20/10/06/dc-highest-coronavirus-cases-daily-count-data/[/quote] Is your argument that the presence of like, 3 children at the Rose Garden ceremony is what caused the spread? [/quote] It was 7 kids and its pretty well documented that a) the Covid carrier load increases in children while they are virtually asymptomatic, and b) the White House did not require Covid-19 testing of attendees. https://www.dcurbanmom.com/jforum/posts/list/916810.page[/quote] I don't know which part of what you said to LOL at more. The 7 kids out of hundreds of attendees somehow being the culprits... the fact that covid viral load in kids hasn't translated to higher level of contagiousness to others in that population.... or the link to a different DCUM thread as some sort of proof.
