[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yeah. Like the lady I saw yesterday driving in a mini copper convertible. Alone. With a mask. Does she think she’s gonna catch covid From the air? Or is she making a statement. Like her Biden bumper sticker isn’t enough. The mask reinforces to all who see her that she’s anti trump. 
But I have to say we are also all becoming conditioned in this area. Especially the kids. I’m noticing more and more that young kids, elementary and high school age, or just wearing masks everywhere. I don’t think they’re doing it to make a statement and I certainly don’t think they’re afraid I think they’ve just gotten used to them and it’s become their new normal. I’m sure their parents reinforce it as well but when they’re out and about walking down the street they still have their masks on. I just don’t understand on how beautiful day it was yesterday at someone who choose to walk down and empty sidewalk alone or with another close friend or family member and keep their mask on. Don’t you miss breathing fresh air?[/quote]
We went out of our way to reinforce to our kids that they need to take their masks off when they're outside. We never made them wear it at the playground or any other outdoor activity. It's just school at this point, and our 13 year-old says enforcement is pretty haphazard at his DC MS.

I don't want my kids to think this is normal. I'm really jealous of their cousins down in Florida who have been going to school all year with zero restrictions. It's frustrating to me that the demographic that is at the lowest risk is stuck living with restrictions to protect adults who can't be bothered to vaccinate themselves. You don't want to get the vaccine? Fine. But, leave my kids alone and let them get back to normal life. [/quote]

It is normal to them.  Why do you care!   Your kids are good people.   You should learn from them.  [/quote]

I truly don’t care what other people do.  You all can mask up for as long as you want.  Makes no difference to me!

As long as you let my kids take their masks off, we’re cool![/quote]

There is NO mask mandate.  If you are talking about schools, stop being selfish as schools are a hot bed given how many kids there are and how close together they are.

You can have your kids take their mask off all they want but they aren't coming into my house either way given your behavior so its a non-issue what you do for us.[/quote]

Except schools haven’t been hotbeds of transmission. Yes, there was a concern they might be, but now we have a ton of data from schools in MoCo, and around the United States and world, showing cases in schools roughly track with cases in the community as a whole. And kids aren’t even at high risk from Covid.[/quote]
