My thoughts are with you. Yours is the hardest job in the world. Thank you for being vocal about the scam.

Thanks for speaking up too. I can’t believe what so many are going along with.

They didn't protect my husband in a care facility from killing himself.

So sorry.


The short sighted decisions we are making are causing grave harm.

I hope there will come a day when sanity rises from the ashes and you folks will be held responsible for what you are doing to your children. It's abuse, plain and simple. I'll bet most kids would prefer a razor strap once a day to being muzzled all day every day.

I think whatever your beliefs -- it is important to make sure you don't over react and influence the kids.

However a child react will depend on the adults around them.

If you are raging against the guidelines, you aren't helping the kids or protecting them.
If you are raging in support of the guidelines you aren't helping the kids.

Just know that your attitude will impact the children.

We are almost done here. Vaccination is escalating daily and soon we will see virus rates slow down.

Give me a break. Kids have thoughts and feelings too and are being harmed by this. Suicidal ideations and suicide attempts have gone up.

Your last statement is ridiculous.

And I hope you don't talk like that in front of kids.

Parents I've talked to haven't had real issues with kids masking up. And when I'm in a store, I've never seen a child fuss with their mask, fuss about the mask, none of it.

I see the kids get off the bus and they don't rip off their masks like most of us adults walking out of the store .....lol

Kids don't have all the baggage we do and we can help them to deal with most situations.
