I know Iprobably ABU but I was just wondering if anyone else has started to let their children play outside with other children yet?
My DS is 4 and since last week I've let him join in and play outside on the street with the other children who live in our cul de sac (3 other households). They aren't social distancing as you can imagine which I don't expect them to.
Since this, DS is a much happier child. He is no longer grumpy and teary, he's sleeping much better and honestly its just so nice to hear him have fun again. He has no siblings or other children in the family and he's been really lonely and missing social interaction.
They difference in him is unbelievable.
It may be selfish but I believe the chances of catching Covid 19 are so low and keeping him isolated was really damaging his mental health.
So are your children playing with others?
