My Mum's angry at me and my family all think I'm mad

[Marilynmansonsothereye]

I work for the emergency services in different locations. Sometimes in the same area my family live in meaning my parents (mum 72 dad 68) and my sister and her husband/kids.
When in this area working i stay with my parents. It gives me time with them and is also more convenient for me.
Tomorrow and for the next 3 days I'm working in their area. Ive told them im not staying with them, I'll just commite. Its about 4hours in total not end of world.My mum is very upset about it and tells me I'm being stupid, she thinks she's already ha it anyway, I'm going to work and could infect people there. She is going about her busienss as normal, shopping, lunching, not changed anything at all. My family all agree with her and think I should just stay over as normal. Im not goong to, but I'm terrified of losing them and if they catch it and nobody is listening to me.

Sorry for typos ! Damn phone.

As long as you can cope with the extra travelling, I absolutely think you’re doing the right thing.

Family never listen to hcp though. I’m a podiatrist, I get ignored on foot issues most of the time.

You are taking sensible precautions. I am experiencing a similar response from parents and siblings despite the risk.

We all have to live with our own actions, do what you can live with and remember the irresponsible people, you are being a leader and taking the lead and being responsible, I have printed out the gov advice for my mum and she is taking it serious now.

Leadership is hard, stay true to your course and follow your gut and heart.

First they ignore you.
Then they laugh at you.
Then they fight you.
Then you win (and they pay attention)

I asked my parents that are way over 70 and both are extremely in the at risk if they will stay at home. They said no and went to the beach for a walk and a cuppa today. You can’t make this crap up anymore

So true nanslayer. Thank you all. I don't want to go into work, I'm so scared but then I know if i dont I'm making problems for others.

Im 37. Fit, healthy, nothing at all wrong with me and I'm just terrified of it. My mum and dad don't give a shit.
I'm also living in a house with two other adults. One bathroom. Small house. They don't seem to care either. Fair that both of them rarely leave the house unless they have to i suppose. Obviously if i get symptoms ill stay off work. Other friends are tellig me to pretend i have symptoms and stay off anyway! But if everyone where i work did that, the whole county could collapse (police). I just want this nightmare to end :(
