[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is OP.  I'm still actually shocked to see these responses but now I feel far less guilty about sending my kid back to daycare while still having symptoms. 🤷‍♀️[/quote]

Glad to hear your child is feeling better and out of the hospital! [b]But why would you send them back with symptoms while telling others to be careful? [/b]I assume your ped said they were no longer contagious?  My daycare would send anyone symptomatic straight back home.[/quote]

Because parents here are acting like it's no big deal.  So why would I go out of my way to be a good citizen?  I'm missing work, opportunities, etc. Our school says he can come back when he reaches a certain benchmark, which he has. Ordinarily I would still keep him home if he was still coughing and snotty but nope - I'm sending him back.[/quote]

With the low standards your daycare has, it’s no wonder your son caught it there. Ever stop to think about that?  I got called last week to pick up DC because her eye was slightly red- they were like, it might be pinkeye and pinkeye has been associated with Covid! Took her to ped and a tiny piece of mulch had gotten in there that I didn’t see- no pinkeye.  Getting called for every little thing is definitely annoying and inconvenient but we’ve had zero class quarantines in 18 months, and only a handful in the other classes.  So their sone upsides to a strict illness policy.[/quote]

This is OP.  Our daycare doesn't have low standards.  It follows the Health Department's rules for the county where we live, which is based upon the CDC's recommendations.  Your daycare sounds draconian.  Where is it - China?  Are you also unemployed or an "entrepreneur" (i.e., MLM)?  That is the only way I can see someone (like you) bragging about being repeatedly inconvenienced yet willingly complying with such ridiculous protocols for minor non-Covid related issues.  [/quote]

+1 my child has been in daycare since September 2020 and she has never been quarantined due to daycare exposure. A couple of the other classes have, so same situation as PP. Our daycare follows state rules, no crazy policies like PP. We are just lucky the families that use the daycare overwhelmingly can work from home, and tend to be pretty COVID cautious outside of school. They dropped masks a month ago too. [/quote]

+1. My kids were back in June 2020. No masks in kids under 5, per VA law (until that ended) and we have not had any quarantines or closures. As far as I know no one in our kids' classes got Covid. We tested for every sniffle until about 6 months ago and they were always negative. And no, they don't call about everything. They use the same criteria as they did pre-Covid: no fevers, no *massive* amounts of snot or coughing. [/quote]
