[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]“The kids don’t care” is the worst justification for an intervention with a marginal benefit. My kids don’t complain, they do what they’re told. But it’s total gaslighting to think anyone is cool with wearing a mask 8+ hours a day with the constant threat of getting yelled at if it drops under their nose.[/quote]

The drama and histrionics are just so over the top. Who is getting yelled at? [/quote]

DP. I don't know if the kids get yelled at or not, but aside from that the PP's post was calm and right on point. The histrionics are on your part with all your desperate attempts to deny that masking kids all day could possibly have any costs, and pretend that anyone who thinks it does is a "psycho".[/quote]

I’m PP and don’t feel particularly dramatic or angry about the mask mandate. I don’t think my kids are traumatized, but I definitely think they were at least sternly reminded about mask compliance on the regular. Yelling might be a stretch, I’ll give you that. I do think people should be open-minded about the benefits and risks of masking children as the pandemic enters its third year.  I’ll admit to my smarmy March 2020 insta posts about my amazing 3 year old wearing a mask when adults couldn’t be bothered. But I’ll also admit that maybe just maybe I was wrong about this.[/quote]
