Kiddo has the mouth part of Hand Foot and Mouth Disease. It’s a highly transmissible virus that can take up to 2 weeks to no be contagious.
2 weeks of not going anywhere. F*ck.
Channeling my competitive nature to stick it out so that my anti-mask family don’t have anything to throw in my face.
Also, spreading diseases is so 2020.
FALKHAR
Ah yes that which makes all humans stronger, spite
AngryRogueMage
Stay healthy, cause fuck em that's why.
datphone777365
why are you still in contact with those conspiracy cunts? fuck em.
newusername99
I completely understand, spent two weeks this year in quarantine with HFM and another two with COVID (even though vaxed). You’ve got this!!
MAN9000
Good job!

If you're only doing it to maintain the moral high ground, you never had it. If you're doing it to protect your community on the other hand

Good action, bad reason. Losing the moral high ground should not be a reason for doing the right thing. Helping others is a better reason.

We just went through this with our toddler. Hope yours gets to feeling better soon. Goodluck

Staycation achieved.

Daughter got mouth blisters, went to dr, he said too much sugar. WTF! No. I said no this is HF&M. 1 week later. Blisters on hands and feet.

Somebody bring this person pancakes!

We appreciate you doing your part
VaultGirl69
Bravo. Thank you for not being a selfish bastard. It's nice to see people still exist that don't put convenience over a stranger's health.

YOU GOT THIS
HappyMockTurtle
best wishes, having antivaxers in the family is a damn good reason to make a stand. been doing the same about having lupus.
bennygig
You are doing the right thing for everyone! We did similar to keep the other kids at my toddlers school from catching RSV. It seems tiring
bennygig
When you feel like the only one taking the spread of illness seriously but there are dozens of us. Dozens! Stay strong. Order in food and
bennygig
Go for walks if you can. We did a lot of leaf hunting, puddle jumping, and follow the leader outside

I got the very rare form that adults sometimes get, and lost multiple fingernails and toenails. 0/10.

possumattack
Yeah getting the lesions under the nails will do that.

Hope you have a intelligent partner to help.
Thediciplematt
Right there with you buddy. day 7 of RSV with a toddler. It’s fricken rough.
Jujuloves
Teen brought RSV home from school. Shared with me. It suuuuucks!
stinkybuttfacemagee
Fuuuckkkk….I’m on day 10 here with RSV. Oldest passed it to the youngest a few days later and one now has an ear infection. Good luck!
NateStrength
I feel your pain. Wife and I had covid along with our 11 month. Was not a fun month...
Vonmonj
It's only tough while you're doing it. Once it's over it'll seem silly that it was ever hard at all. You got this

The quarantine
pirateninjaunicornattacksquad
The better lesson would be to show up anyway, give it to all of them, and then say "But I thought you were okays with spreading disease."
mondomar
Is your child also a deer?
zebrasally3
No, more of a semi-feral goblin.
3Davideo
What, you're not deliberately spreading it to your pro-disease relatives out of spite? That takes courage.
thevortexmaster
You should secretly swab your child's mouth and rub it on all of the lips of your antivax families cups.
Jessebob42
Yes!

There's no nice way to say it. It's medical name is Coxsackie. My son picked it up at daycare. Then I got it from him. My doctor had never >
zebrasally3
The doctor’s diagnosis was Herpangina which sounds like an insult a middle schooler would come up with.
HolyHellJezebel
Seen an adult with Coxsackie.
Callipygius
It seems like docs and literature say adults don't get it, but since our family had it twice this year, we hear of so many adults getting it
HolyHellJezebel
I think most of the parents of recent toddlers probably weren't in daycare. You can't get by on one salary now so daycare is a necessity
MarkySpaceMagnet
I would be staying home, because it's the right thing to do, not out of spite for one group, or another.
naomiMoonBeast
Me and everybody needs a motivation
JadeNB1729
The good news is that doing good things for good reasons or spiteful reasons still gets good things done!
Doonesman
I'm genuinely shocked you could read this post from all the way up there on your high horse.
lewaq
Whatever floats their boat.
redfeather1
Why not both?
penandsword
Congratulations? Thank goodness you're not about moral superiority
TiredSnowball
If spite helps to bear the "stuck locked up with a toddler for 2 weeks", then good. Any little helps.
Manse84
My friends had a toddler in 2020. They are the strongest people I know
Bondsmith10
Spite is the most powerful motivator in the world, don't knock it til you try it
CurseUrSuddenButInevitableBetrayal
I don't get it. What does your child getting sick have to do with your family member? Did they infect the kid or something?
astesche
OP followed all the experts advice but the kid still caught an illness. If the family finds out it validates their anti mask stance.
insertwittyjoke
If you have a kid in daycare all that expert advice goes right out the window. What is OP even trying to prove?
Harryteeters
Hell yeah. I've caught a couple colds recently. I've got no shame masking up and social distancing
ISlippedOnJzzAndAlmostAteSht
It’s really helped with allergies too
BadPunsAplenty
Good for you! My son got it; I got it. It totally sucked. Would be a shame if an antivaxxer family member were to get it...somehow...
Steakunit
Knit some blankets for them. Special blankets. Let your kid make them special.
Emberpaw
????? I'm dying here. That's too funny
Lucallia
Ah yes in the footsteps of the ancestors.
Uncreativemememaster
Are you advocating biological warfare?
Emberpaw
Lol I don't know if they are but I sure am
pirateninjaunicornattacksquad
Yes.
GaySocialistLiberalMuslimCommieAtheist
Biological warfare is already underway, see the anti vaxxers recording themselves coughing and spitting on people during covid...
Ezzy666
No, antivaxxers say their diet and essential oils make them immune to disease
SlickWithaLimerick
It's thanksgiving, so I think we can allow it.
redfeather1
Being Cherokee... I'll allow this....

Isn't that against the Geneva Suggestion?
agent9
Those are simply guidelines pure and simple
SoulfulSerenade
Bugs Bunny taught me that the Geneva Conventions were optional
CrypticThings
Ah, but remember, those only apply to other countries citizens. Not ours. Heavy /s
CharlieandOliver
/s but sadly it’s completely accurate in practice

Not a war crime if it’s against an entity that we can’t declare war against.
