With 3 small kids, I am freaking out right now!

Just approach this thing one day at a time and when a thought comes to you to plan something, e.g. prep , procure, etc. do so (if prudent). Be strong for your kids.

I would love to hear from other parents... it was fine until this virus came into the picture

It sucks though!!!

Sorry -.-' i guess...

You're over thinking it, just like they want ya too. I have an 11yo and a 5yo, Went to Disney world last Thursday to Sunday. Had the time of our lives, so did everyone else there. Less than 1 percent of the US has it, just chill.

Now is the time to have peace. Trust the Lord. He is in control.

I think that if you are a good person, you have literally nothing to worry about. Even if you are a dirty rotten cultist, you may stop at any time and be fully forgiven without any questions asked.

This is not rocket science, nor is it religion.

Be an awesome person, and I personally will guarantee your safety, along with your children.

Do you vitamin C and D3 you can give your kids, chewable or gummier? Keep everyone's immune system up as best you can.

The crazy thing is young kids (most) do not have a grasp about what this all means (big picture).

Dang!!!! I get it i am freaked out. But you, you dont give a flying eff. Take them to the germ capital of the world!!! Nice

Possibly the most dangerous words to be spoken that can strip the veneer of civility from anyone are "Daddy, I'm hungry."

Helps build their immune system ;)

To each their own i guess. But how could you put them in that position? I get the attitude of "i just dont care if i get this disease. But thats usually single people. But as parent to put them in a potentially dangerous situation?

To be honest, no one gave a shit, I saw maybe 3 masks. There were thousands of us there, was great. Then we go back to the hotel and get swarmed with this shit. Any given year there are more ppl with the flu, no one gives a shit then. Now we're all "protect the elderly"...bunch of shit.

Ikr.... parents have to e freaking out right now

get out into nature with them, get out into the sun and enjoy each day. Things will instictively come to you as to how to handle each situation. Don't let all this media/internet driven hype psyche you out.

i have 4 under 7
all is well

What if one of your kids gets sick from your trip?

How can you feel that way???

You should have got your family out of the country

of course they are

just tell them Donald Trump's robbing America blind right now and things will go back to normal soon

were good here with the youngn's theyve settled in nice, we got enough food for 4 weeks, will run out of milk in about 2 weeks, but stores around here have a decent supply still.

Couple points here. It blew up while we were there, we didnt just say...hey covid is here, lets go to disney.I mean I knew about it, but I wasnt worried. It was planned way ahead of time. Second, children are kicking the shit out of this thing, its the older people that are in danger.

I know :(

Yup, talked to a young mother and she's at the grocery and she was freaking out.

It's not time to freak out.... that comes later

What part of the country do you live?

not sure
what i am supposed to freaking out about?

Im w you. I have 4 kids and they dont understand why i dont want to let them continually eat. Now we wont starve i have 2 lakes and a few rivers near me and I havent met a fish i couldnt catch on a bad day. But its scary for sure. When you are responsible for people who cant be responsible for themselves.

Ouch!

Look my hats off to you for trying to live like theres nothing to worry about - i kinda admire that. However we knew about this disease back in January- you had plenty of time to cancel the trip and not put anyone in danger. Look i get it my kids would have flipped out if i had cancelled their trip to disney - ut it would have been the prudent thing to do
