~~~~~~~Save The ~~~~~

Our have no choice, they need love, social contact, ...... laugh and sing...

The first picture shows my great-grandson, now 17 months old, who discovers the world around him. Thankfully, he is loved and hugged by family members - old and young -,
and he sees their faces, hears the sound of their voices, etc.........

I hope, he will not experience the trauma of social distancing and wearing masks in the near future.

The rest shows what our have to go through now.







Happiness is when what you think, what you say, what you do are in harmony - M. Gandhi

WE ARE MASKED HERE FROM AGE 11 ON. I DO NOT SEE MANY PEOPLE INCLUDING CHILDREN SUFFERING FROM IT. NO ONE IS EXPECTED TO WEAR A MASK INSIDE THE HOME UNLESS ILL. AND KINDERGARTEN AND ELEMENTARY SCHOOL KIDS SEE EACH OTHER UNMASKED. NO ONE IS OVERJOYED BY THE SITUATION BUT IT IS NECESSARY FOR THE TIME BEING.

I totally agree with you Archer.My great granddaughter has absolutely no idea why we now wear masks, but it has had no effect on her whatsoever. Children often understand more than we adults think they do.

Children take their cues from the adults around them. They will be just fine if the adults around them have a positive attitude.

To liken wearing masks to protect folks, to slavery is appalling. Childcare workers have had the little ones hold on to a line to help keep them safe and together on walks for many years.

Well said. It's important to keep things in perspective.

I agree wholeheartedly......Children have lived through much hardship all through history.......Through wars and plagues and famines and pogroms and epidemics........and adults have done what they think is best for them.....That's how it has always been....and most of them have survived with their souls intact.....

Sparkle you speak of how children have been through wars plagues, famines, etc. & came through with souls intact.
I highly suspect seeks concern for her grandson pictured there & other pictures may be related to actual traumatic experience of war.

She may know something about it that we do not know.
She may have been in it at his age. First hand knowledge usually carries
more weight.
