'It feels like families with young children are making huge sacrifices as other groups of people are shamelessly defying the rules.'😒 StayHome
, I came across a post from a family friend. He was celebrating his 22nd birthday. Just as I was about to type the obligatory “HBD,” something in his video caught my eye.I swiped past the video of him spraying his friends with champagne on the beach only to find several birthday pics of him plus at least six others who are not in his immediate family, all in close proximity.
I waited for the rage to come over me, but it didn’t come. Instead, I was flooded with a feeling of hopelessness.
The ability to physically distance is a privilege and sadly, some people lack the resources to follow the protocols. Those of course aren’t the people I’m calling out. But too many young adults, for example, seem to be explicitly and shamelessly defying the rules. They’re too old to be parented, yet too young to have shaken their adolescent illusions of invincibility. I am at a complete loss as to how our society, our government, our appeals, will ever reach them.
This laissez-faire outlook, the sheepish, smiling expression of a young man interviewed on the news about his lack of distancing could, at its worst, have grave consequences, and to the lesser extreme, just ruin it for the rest of us, the rule followers. Families with small children have made so many sacrifices during this pandemic, all in the name of personal and collective safety. Parents are on duty 24/7,, they are playmates, they are personal assistants to their children’s virtual home-school schedules. Many are all this while also attempting to work from home full time. Grandparents aren’t allowed over, daycares and playgrounds remain closed.
