We were celebrating my birthday at a nice restaurant. My cousin, who had just had her first child 2 months before, was there.
I asked when he was eligible to be vaccinated (this was pre-Covid, so just talking routine infant vaccinations).
She said she wasn’t sure if she was because she read on FB that….
I had had some good wine. I had heard enough. It was my birthday and I regret nothing, but we didn’t speak for a very long while after I went into “are you fucking kidding me” mode.
When the Covid vaccines came out, my wife and I immediately got them. A couple of weeks later, our kids had a patch of various sicknesses, nothing major just some mild infections. I told our kindergarten teacher that I was annoyed about that and she tells, she read, that we are shedding the vaccine and that's why our kids are sick now. I went full "are you fucking kidding me" mode and felt really bad for a long time after that.
I would have pulled my kids from that class
