✏ Rules
- DO NOT DOXX YOUR KIDS - Seriously, use an alt for this comm or keep it vague; otherwise we’re centralizing info about everyone’s kids into a single place that can be easily focused on.
- No jokes about dead kids - I don't care how much the romanovs deserved it, or how right John Brown was, save it for another comm.
- No antinatalism struggle sessions

When I was told that "Kids bring germs home from school, that's just part of being a parent 🤪 !" I was expecting the common cold a couple times per year, not a full-blown bacterial pneumonia lung infection.
This is day 7 of being almost entirely bed-ridden. Thankfully I am now on antibiotics and seem to be slowly, sloooowly healing.
Fuckin kids dude
the first vomiting and diarrhoea sickness will change you forever
first thing kids should do when they get home from school is wash their hands
Our kids have been in daycare since 6month old and I fell like their systems are built like a fortress now. I've been working in schools for a while so my system is usually pretty resilient, but those daycare bugs were a whole other beast!
Hope you feel better quickly!
