I don't think "Vaxxed and done" people are saying your kids getting sick shouldn't feel stressful but rather covid poses a risk to children that is similar to or less than numerous other diseases and ailments we already faced. Just as schools weren't closed (or whatever precaution you'd like to put in here) for the flu or pneumonia there is no reason to close them for covid.

Some of the "Vaxxed and Done" voices that I hear on the WWW sounds like childfree adults telling parents that they should not worry. That is the perfect recipe for confrontation, even if unintentional! As a young adult, I would have happily tried to explain a rational, statistical/data-driven argument to parents. As a parent, I understand and accept a certain amount of irrational protectiveness/risk-aversion. It becomes very easy for us to talk past each other.

Schools regularly either dismiss classes, or all classes altogether, when there are strep, measles or chicken pox outbreaks. The latter is just an itchy rash.
