Nope! We have been FaceTiming the grandparents almost every day. But my husband and I decided it’s in our parents best interest for us to stay away. We do deliver food and things they need but we just drop them off at the door for them and leave.
No…only cause my dad has heart issues and my step dad has stage 3 lung cancer …not risking it. Video call instead
No. You don’t know if you have it, because some people don’t even show symptoms what so ever. Just not worth it. I think we need to get this all over with, by following the rules.
No, that’s keeping kids & grandparent safe. HOW ABOUT FACE TIMING?
Not during this time, no.
My mom’s not elderly but she does have diabetes and my step dad has copd. I will not take my son over there during this time because I would feel awful if they got sick from this virus even though we are healthy.
I still take my kids to see my parents. Even with the high number of cases in New York, only 3% of the people who have it are in ICU. And even that doesn’t mean they are going to die. Many many many will get this virus, very very few will actually pass away. We don’t go out much other than that, but we are still seeing grandma and grandpa.
Depends on whether you like the kid’s grandparents.
If you haven’t seen them in a week or longer, I wouldn’t since not same household for quarantine. I’d plan daily walk-bys to say hello or paint windows, etc, to maintain social distancing.
My family said no to visiting them I love and miss my family my grandsons are incredible
Nope. Rather keep ur distance. Don’t risk their health. Rather video call every day. That’s what I’m planning to do.
Wave to them from the porch. Stay in vehicle
I would not risk it. Before this all broke out I was going to go see my mom. So she could see her 4th grandson. But once this came to the pubic attention I told her sorry I wasn’t coming.
- Because she is in her 80s and I would not risk getting her sick.
- I will not risk my 4 boys getting sick.
- I put all my family above what I really want to do. Especially if it can harm them if I choose to be selfish.
- I only go out if I have to other then that I stay home.
- Because I just dont want to protect my family but others as well.
What part of NO do you not understand? They are most at risk, and kids touch Everything. Quarantine means just that.
Take a walk and say Hey how are ya means allot these days .They can see you guys from the driveway window …Its all about respect …
What a Stupid Risk. Stupid. Risk.
No it’s lockdown only mix with ppl in. Your own house hmgo out for food shopping stay in stay safe
My kids don’t leave the house i stay home with them and if any running needs to be done my husband goes and takes hand sanitizer with him and wears a mask
Smh. Don’t be selfish or stupid. FaceTime.
If they are grandparents then they are elderly, and I mean no disrespect when I say that, but I would not chance it. I would normally take my kids to visit my grandparents(their great grandparents) at least once a week but I won’t now until this is all over. I miss them terribly but I don’t want them getting sick with anything!
Perhaps check with your pediatrician. Crozer has a hotline #: (610) 447-6730 for questions regarding COVID-19. I’m sure your children and their grandparents would love to see one another during this difficult time. Be safe. God Bless you for caring about the importance of grandparents in the lives of your children!
NO. They can facetime or use ZOOM. Children are carriers and mostly asymptomatic
Not worth the risk. The kids will carry that if they get sick. Visit outside the window. It’s just NOT WORTH THE RISK. you or your kids could already be sick and not know
Im in Australia and we went into stage 2 lockdown yesterday and we cant have more then 10 people in the house, my inlaws are 5 minutes away (15 if the kids drag their feet) but we are not going over there unless absolutely necessary i.e hospital trip (we don’t have a car at the moment) especially as we would be pushing the limit as their are 3 adults at my in laws house sometimes 4 as my MIL is currently going through radio therapy and sometimes her mum comes to stay will FIL and BIL are at work and in my household there are 3 kids and 2 adults, its risky for us to go out as a family right now and i always make sure the kids have clean hands when we go out and after being on buses, toilet, play etc. but its not worth it
I still take my kids to their grandparents mind you I’m in mb and the virus isn’t too bad out here yet but I’m sure once and god forbid it does get worse my mother in-law would understand if we kept them home.
Yes I would bring them over - if I wanted a Death sentence for the whole family. If you do go and one of the elders dies because of it in the end…how will you live knowing that you’re a murderer? I guess do as you wish, people like you will anyway…
I watch my grand kids everyday as my children need to work
No! I won’t expose my kids to them and every person they’ve been exposed to. Remember people can be contagious and not show symptoms
What part of no seeing family outside your own household means we can go vist?
My grandchildren have been with me for two weeks … their mother is a nurse❤️ …enough said
The only time i would is if everyone has been totally self isolated for a min of 2 weeks, though in saying that some grandparents are younger, my mum has 4 grandkids and isnt even 50 yet so
I’ve been goin to my in-laws a block away.
Stay home. Don’t risk it. Covid19 doesn’t care if some humans are the healthiest of all it will attack whomever gets in it’s way. Why can’t you just facetime?
My kids went to their great grandmother house today for a few days. It depends on your situation.
Absolutely NO. They can infect elders who have poor immune systems.
Stay outside and 6 ft a part biggest thing is distancing.
Would you take your kids to their Great Grandparents at this time
I have my grandson everyday as his mom has to work
I would my mom n step dad come here plus we take tge kids out for rides n look at trees n wildlife
You have been told not to visit anyone . You do not go to other people’s houses. This is the problem no one is listening and carrying on like there is nothing happening
Why are so many people rude on this page? Quarantine, no. Social distancing, go ahead. Not all states are confining people to their houses.
In a word NO use telephone
It’s not really about being scared or not. Or about if you think it’s silly or not. Numbers don’t lie and this is serious ppl are so ignorant.
We haven’t taken our daughter to see either her grandparents or great grandparents just out of precaution. We are terrified of getting anyone sick, or put in harms way, even though none of us are sick. That’s just our opinion. We are waiting it out, and using FaceTime instead for now
No I would not .
Stay isolated, means stay isolated .
How would you feel if they saw someone else & gave it to you or your kids . You would never forgive yourself if one of them died .
no, u may have it or they may, even if there are no symptoms yet
Smh! Social distancing means stay away from people you don’t live with!!!
That would be a risk to your elders and other people
Yes, I am a grandma and I am thrilled that my grandchildren come everyday to see me.
What about having shared custody of your kids? Should the kids go back and forth between mom and dad house?
I don’t see why not. If you are comfortable with it and yes let them go. Trust me. You don’t want them to pass away and you knowing that they didn’t get to see them one last time.
I am back to work April 6th and my husband is working so my kids will be going to their grandparents. They are my children’s care takers. But until that happens they are stuck at home with me.
You don’t go anywhere! Its very simple.
I agree that all should stay home but it’s funny that ppl are bashing her for ASKING. I just seen a post showing the parking lot to a state park packed! Honestly I feel something should be done about that. Our state is in quarantine and ppl are still going for walks, riding their bikes everywhere, parks filled with ppl. If the parents are following quarantine guidelines and so is her family and only visiting each other instead of having other groups of ppl it should be o.k. as long as they wash their hands and use sanitizer while there. It’s still safer if everyone stays home unless they need to leave though.
How are they’re getting foods and pay their bills??? If they went out taking the risk instead of doing it online well no I wouldn’t but FaceTime is a great way to go.
No.I usually pick up my2 youngest grandchildren every other Friday after school to spend the night but with everything being the way it is( plus !y husband isn’t in the best of health) it’s just not a good idea for their health and ours. Do I miss them? Soooo much!!!
Wow I can’t believe how rude/awful some people are on here… First of all it is YOUR baby so YOUR choice… if you/your child are not sick and haven’t been around any body who is sick, and the grandparents are comfortable then there is not a problem. Especially since they are just a short walk away. My baby sees her grand parents everyday (even with the chaos going on) and has even seen her great grandparents during this time. Just be safe and smart!
Honestly rn no I Seoul’s you. Just for their health and the kids. I’d be worried about them getting sick. You could pick something up going there. I’m not visiting my grandparents or aunt like I wanted to cause of this and I’m also not taking my daughter to her fathers at the moment either- But the city my kids dad is in has the most in the state.
I wouldn’t chance it. Have them talk by phone or facetime
Only to open van door an give a tray of home made lasagna .I think that was fine , thanks Brandi, love ya.
Thank you Anna Bennett! Love and miss you, but really appreciate you thinking of us.
As long as nobody sick go
No you or your children could be carriers they could be carriers! People start reading about this and mind the warnings!
I would say not until everyone that would be involved with the visit has been symptom free and isolated for 2 weeks to be safe. Or you could all stand 6 ft away from each other and no contact visit in the open air.
If they have no contact with others & either does your family then they can be considered a part of your safety isolation bubble.
No, the whole point is immediate family ONLY.
Especially since kids can be silent carriers. Why would you even risk that
I live right across the street from my parents so my parents are still seeing their grandkids every day I’m at the hospital with my husband due to him having a seizure and their at Grandma and Grandpa’s
Wow you don’t understand social distancing. Video chat. Everyone is bored. Get over it already or this is not going to end anytime soon.
