[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think anyone cares if individuals choose to wear masks.  It is the judgement and shaming that is the issue.  That obviously exists (as witnessed by the Janney partner teacher).  For adults, who cares.  But our kids are involved here.  We are trying to ascertain if our kids are going to receive negative repercussions (socially from peers, educationally from teachers) if they choose to unmask.

Someone here does:

Because I want the indoor mandate dropped ASAP and if I see parents masking outdoors, I assume they are likely far from supporting unmasking of kids indoors. Also, because outdoor masking is in most cases a marker of either irrational fear or virtue signaling, and I’d like to see less of either.

This does beg the question:  Do you think everyone wearing a mask outside when it is not required are immunocompromised or have a high-risk family member?  If not, what else are their motivations?[/quote]

WHO CARES????  IT IS NONE OF MY BUSINESS AND I DO NOT CARE [/quote]

Why are you yelling?  Relax.  No one is asking you to care.

My question is about social norms which have repercussions for our own children.  If there are many people who are just continuing to mask outdoors when it is not required, I would like to understand why.  They ALL can't be high risk or have high risk family members.  So why do it?  It's weird that this is such a difficult question to answer that you've resorted to yelling.[/quote]
