[quote MrsLCSofLichfield]@Quartz2208 - you are right, as ever. Uncertainty is hard to deal with.
It's hard not to judge each other, too. I admire the rhetorical skills of some posters, though. "We can all live how we want to live, of course, but I'm really concerned that you haven't been to the supermarket for a year, that's not normal. Oh, and I'm giving my children a real childhood, which on MN inevitably means holidaying in Cornwall/North Norfolk. So sorry for all you mums who don't want to or can't afford it, or have to work, surely not and your poor DC, what a shame".

Well, I knew MN had some really spiteful people posting, but the suggestion that someone should seek help from their GP because they're being socially responsible? That takes the biscuit.
@NannyAndJohn : You appear to be doing just fine. The suggestion that you need to seek help is risible.
@MrsLCSofLichfield
Quite. What a shower of pernicious bollocks. "Oh, you poor thing. You really should seek help" say the people who appear to have swallowed the vile Hood's appalling and calculated language hook, line and sinker. When he used the word, "cowering", in relation to people trying to avoid covid (and those who'd already died as a direct result of his party's incompetence), this is precisely the sort of behaviour he was dog-whistling. His apology is meaningless because he knew that people would take that and run with it. As they have.
Super-callous, fascist, racist. Tories are atrocious. They know *exactly what they're doing, and some of you are falling for it at every step. Every Damned Time.
