More Americans are saying they’re ‘vaxxed and done’

The parent comment kind of came off as "why are you worrying and not more optimistic, my kids are fine" which seems like a dismissive way to respond to someone's worries about their own kids.

The problem is the person worried about their kids also wants everyone else to worry about their kids.

Problem is I have my own kids to worry about, and I worry plenty, just not about covid.

When someone shares their feelings it doesn't mean they want you to feel like they do.

The original comment was expressing frustration with a situation that feels like everyone's moving on without them. As a person in the same situation I didn't get the sense it was trying to scare me at all, and find myself similarly frustrated.

Fair enough.

I guess I’ve just seen too many people to then use those feelings to encourage people getting fired from the jobs because they are only putting themselves at risk and not getting vaccinated.

I’d encourage you to move on though. I can’t see the good in worrying about it. To each their own I guess.

Thanks for being reasonable and I appreciate the encouragement.

I honestly don't see the good in worrying about much of anything, yet I worry all the same. Just another of life's frustrations.
