[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree with OP. I hope no one is completely isolating their kids for this prolonged period. [/quote]

I know someone who has kept kids completely isolated since March. Haven't seen another human outside their home. Basically do not leave their home. Makes me so sad. [/quote]

Really? This is very sad. And I’d say rare. Does one of the children have some kind of health condition?[/quote]
Sadly not so rare . I think it is at least neglect. No, it isn't child abuse on the level of locking them in cages, but still really bad.

And the worst part is the parents think they are virtue signaling. But it's at the kid's expense. The parents at least have an online social life. Their kids don't. [/quote]

Where do you live that you can say this level of caution is "not so rare."

I see kids out (masked, outdoors) every single day. My young kids have a cadre of peers they meet up with at the playground, including kids who are immunocompromised or live with someone who is.

Either your neighborhood is an outlier, or you are fibbing. [/quote]
You obviously aren't seeing these kids on the playground.  They're not there. That's exactly the issue. Sorry you don't have as wide a circle of acquaintances.

I live in a very high income area. Prefer not to say exactly where.[/quote]
