I feel ridiculous in them (like The Hamburglar!), but I have been fastidious about wearing a mask out in public (indoors) for months now. Also, my kids wear them. I feel ridiculous because many around me don't wear them. I don't judge those who choose not to, but I'm tired of people giving me a hard time about trying to conform. My kids got invited to a large slumber party recently. After a different gathering of the same kids, I found out that two of the moms who had been milling around mask free had actually just recovered from Covid. I've told my kids they are not allowed to hang out with this group right now as they are careless. The mom of the birthday girl texted me AND dropped by my home with her daughter (unannounced) to convince me to let my kids go to this 10 girl slumber party (I ignored the text and didn't go outside to speak with them). I feel like I'm stuck between two different worlds here. My kids are super good about it, but there has to be resentment when the other moms act like I'm being ridiculous. I just want my kids to be able to get back to school and sports, they can go to parties again when this is over with.
