They are in their sixties, DDad has a health condition, and they are just not following guidelines. They keep popping out, together and independently for completely unnecessary things from the shops, think gardening items, sweets, magazines etc. These are two intelligent, educated people, who fully understand and use the internet, so they don't need to pop out for a Take a Break etc.
My DM has also been going to visit my 92 year old a great Aunt who barely made it through the last year health wise.
They keep insisting that I pop the kids in the car and drive to theirs to exchange Easter and birthday gifts for the DC, then get angry when I try to explain why we won't be doing that, as apparently all their friends are doing it, "it's only one little trip, it won't matter", etc.
I'm fed up of being made out to be paranoid and neurotic, when I'm just trying to keep us all safe.
Anyone else feel like their parents just don't get it?
