For the past several weeks, my stepsons' BM has been giving them all kinds of dangerous information regarding the corona virus.  It started out with "we can't get sick because we are too young," followed by a great deal of argument attempting to support this theory.  The latest was that they wouldn't get sick because they had the flu vaccine.  Now I have known for some time that the BM is not the sharpest tool in the shed on all matters health related regardless of her misguided self assessment of her knowledge, but it always seemed her laziness was the overriding issue at the heart of the matter, i.e. she was too lazy to actually put their health first and take them to the doctor when needed, not that she didn't realize they needed to go.  What makes all of this even more frustrating is that I am a healthcare provider.  Because of that, the kids have always come to me with (health) questions or concerns, but as of late the eldest (9 yo) has become super argumentative about anything and everything.  This was no exception.  After hearing how they have just slathered hand sanitizer on their dirty hands in lieu of washing them, I couldn't take it anymore.  After a long and contentious conversation/argument with DH which involved BM crying and admitting to the aforementioned issues and several others, BM admitted she did not take the pandemic seriously initially and felt bad about it, but that she still thought the kids were better served with her and that she actually was only worried she would not get them back if even stricter quarantine measures were implemented.  Admittedly, I'm still shocked this woman has been this ridiculous, but is anyone else having similar issues during this time??
