[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]She has one lung and you are freaking out because her kids were allowed to touch packages that were dropped off on the porch? I would fire you because you're neurotic as hell. I am also high risk but I just sent someone out for tacos for me because I wanted tacos. And I ate them straight out of the wrappers. Get a grip. Good Lord, neurotic people irritate the hell out of me. Is anyone literally dying there, OP? If not, go chill somewhere and listen to some good music and smoke a joint or something. Life is short. Enjoy it. Worry gets you nowhere fast. [/quote]

Neurotic?!

I’m in Michigan.  We went from ok to third in the country in under 2 weeks.  Ranked by population, were 8 (2010) or 10 (current estimate, pending complete census).  Half of my family is afraid to even have track cerise’s delivered, because they’re over by Detroit and it’s really, really bad.

I’m with OP completely.  Follow social distancing.  No outside packaging comes inside.  Clean touch points before touching.  And stay home as much as possible.[/quote]

Thank you for being informed. I’m not going over there anymore. Last Friday our governor put us on a stay at home order which was supposed to be stricter than shelter in place and had more rules. Come Monday she tells me took the kids to the busiest park in our city over the weekend! They don’t even live on that side of town yet she went out of her way to do so. I asked her point blank “so why did you decide that in the midst of a pandemic to take your kids to the busiest public park in town? You can’t control other staying away from you or kids they may play with that could be infected” She just stared in space like an idiot and said something about cabin fever.

Well no shit, we all have cabin fever! I take those kids in the back yard and set up pools, shaving cream car washes, water balloon obstacle courses and all sorts of things but neither of them can be bothered being creative in and out of their 7000 square feet to entertain their children for a couple of days with out me?

Their lack of staying home says to me they don’t care about my health and I’ve been calling out since. Once they let me go I will file for unemployment but hopefully my agency will be able to set me up with families that are as serious about this as I am and are REALLY sheltering in place. We have lots of people needing nannies since school is out. [/quote]

PP again.  I don’t have problem taking kids out.  But it’s hiking or biking on trails, playing soccer in a field, walking in the woods (bonus for nature study at the same time!), going to watch the ducks, geese and swans.  We drive up to 30 minutes, park away from others and stay away from others while getting exercise and fresh air.[/quote]
