Growing up, yeah we were allowed out all day but there were a lot more housewives around and watching out for us. Then other adults were not afraid to tell someone else's child off. I think we seemed to have simultaneously given kids rights like adults whilst taking away any level of personal responsibility. My kids do walk to school alone (7,9,13) and go to park alone with friends but we live in Spain and things are different here. Kids are more like the kids I remember as a child growing up. They are also vaccinated and wear masks all the time at school and don't complain because they are protecting others and it's not much to ask.

It just had a lot of black kids who were in high school listening to hip hop. They told my dad I should not be allowed to bike to practice and they will pick me up instead so I can be supervised. My dad laughed at them and said no, they pushed again and he lost it on them. It's only gotten worse but parents also need to make stands to let their kids not need a babysitter 24/7.

[@webx135]

As a millennial concerned about the virus, I can tell you why my concern was so high earlier on. SImply put, it wasn't about me. I didn't care if I caught some bug. Perhaps with the exception of some of the potentially-permanent side-effects. Several friends got it, and they basically coughed a few times. Some didn't even know they had it. But my dad had several co-morbidities. I work with a lot of old guys in Engineering. They mostly had co-morbidities. My sister has several young kids, which was a concern. And then with all of that, the medical system hadn't caught up with the sudden change. If this wasn't contageous and spreading to people who ARE vulnerable, I would never have worn the mask. I wouldn't have cared if anyone else wore masks, especially anti-vaxxers and other science-denialists. If some Alex Jones type wants to follow some conspiracy and get a disease, then if they die, they die. They want to deny natural selection? Let them have a demonstration. So while I generally agree with Maher's skepticism over the virus, I totally disagree with his general narrative about us being spineless and living in fear, afraid of some bug that won't kill us. We aren't mostly afraid for OURSELVES, we're afraid for those who WOULD be affected by the virus, and doing our part to protect THEM, and to establish herd immunity to stop the spread and let the virus go extinct.

[@chino3796]

Yes, thank you. I'm not afraid of catching Covid (although I'd rather not) I'm afraid of passing it to my 90 yo mother and little nieces and nephews, even people on the street that might be compromised.

[@Ganiscol]

Its not just that but the fact that even if an infection is not dangerous, mild even, it can have long term or permanent effects. It took me 4 months to get the endurance for my sport back in 2020 and another 8 months to get rid of some pretty annoying lingering symptoms. Thats a grand total of 12 months for 2 weeks of illness. So, naturally I got myself double vaccinated in 2021 and the third one comes up soon. That said, if you're smart enough to get vaccinated, the chances of all of this are extremely slim, but you can still infect others who arent because being immune doesnt mean the virus bounces off your skin or something... However it may be, the solution to either problem for most people is readily available: a vaccine

[@chino3796]

If you're vaccinated your only contagious for a short time before the antibodies rid your system of virus.

My dad had a whistle he’d employ when it was time to come home. He could purse his lips and let out a whistle that could pierce ice. I remember one time I was over a mile away and I heard it. Time to go home.

[@brassberg4807]

The guest said "people live longer now" and then no one said, "That's right.... vaccines!"

[@Mrst3lios89]

I think if they said “vaccines” they would take a political position because they existed in their lifetime and their parents’ lifetime. People live longer because of better medicine in general that includes vaccines ofc.

[@LividImp]

Vaccines do more to get you out of your first five years than they do to get you through your last twenty. People are living longer because of medical science in general. I should have been dead already but meds and gadgets keep me going. Already beat the initial estimate by a year or two. Ten more years is not out of the question thanks to medical science.

[@thehighpriestess978]

I am not so sure about people living longer. It seems none of my older relatives died young, even back then, unless it was an accident or war related. My relatives that were born in the late 1800s and early 1900s lived very long, well into their 80s and 90s, and one made it to 107. It wasn't modern medicine that kept them alive that long either, they died at home. They were all from Germany, some stayed there, and others moved to New York Brooklyn and Queens,in the 1920s, so I can't agree with that.

[@Mrst3lios89]

@@thehighpriestess978 to put things into perspective, humans' life expectancy has always been between 80-90 (excluding outliers) but medicine allows *more* people to reach that age and exceed it. So, for example, testing has advanced considerably which allows doctors to balance our bodies with medicine and through various other practices before they reach severe and dangerous exhaustion levels. So, medicine does not cure death; it just prolongs life and increases survival rates from diseases, accidents, operations, etc etc. Your family might just have good genes... but, those with poorer genes which includes most of us, are given the chance now to survive longer. Edit: I would differ you to a clip from Westworld where Hopkins describes it better than I: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aJnVkmaLlKhobNk

[@thehighpriestess978]

@@Mrst3lios89 WELL, that may be so, but from my experiences in the past 10 traumatic years, much depends on the doctors, the hospital, the medicines and who is doing the testing. After seeing the reality, I rather go to a witch doctor anyway.

@@CYeoung You don't need to have children to know what's a good idea, or bad idea. Just like someone that has children, doesn't mean they know how to bring up kids, or what's best for them. Or there wouldn't be poor quality parents out there. It also doesn't mean a non parent, knows how easy or difficult certain aspects of parenting is. But that's not what is being said.

One thing that never gets discussed by anyone, is what’s going to happen to the younger people in a few years. Ira hit on it a little. Does no one think that the over sanitation/protecting of the kids from 4-25 isn’t going to have consequences? Not just the blatantly obvious mental/psychological. The actual physical issues from not allowing immune systems to progress naturally. The hospitalizations are going to be staggering.

[@bobhanson1037]

My son is 2. That poor kid gets over stimulated by everything. He is so use to mom, dad, sister, and grandma home that he had no idea how to process us leaving. Grandma moved out and mom works, and sister has school and he had a hard time adjusting. Going to the store with him is awful. He doesn't know how to behave and gets so frustrated so fast. We just got him to mall of America to go on actual rides. It's sad how much our kids have missed out and how hard it was on them but they get 0 sympathy.

[@MWSfan18]

This is something that has concerned me for several years, even before the pandemic. The over coddling of children, their lackluster education, their declining health (obesity, mental health, etc.). These kids are gonna be my future doctors, lawyers, employees, politicians, etc. And their kids will be theirs. What kind of future will we have if we don't course correct, right NOW?

As a young person I will say we are not worried about ourselves dying we are worried about spreading this to our parents and grandparents who have a much greater likliehood of dying. So when we see people not taking all the possible common sense protections to keep our paretns safe it affects us more than a threat to myself. You are a lot more upset when somone threatens your family than you ever would be about yourself.

Could it be, that young people are afraid to spread the virus and possible be responsible for the death od their grand parents? In this regard, young people have to be MORE CAREFUL since they are more likely to be a symptomatic and spread the virus.

When I was 11, and my mother was working 2-3 jobs everyday to support her 3 kids after my father passed away due to a hidden genetic heart defect at 38. I started my own fireworks, martial arts weapons, cigarettes, and dirty magazines. It is a shame that I was always making more money as a 12 year old than at any other time in my life (I am now in my 50s) but government has a way of punishing ambition, and innovation. My chosen field was wildlife and evolution lecturing, but with the animal regulations enacted in the Clinton years, made that dream of my own lecture company, faded. Way too much red tape to navigate and pay to be successful. 2016 was tough for me, because I hate trump, and hate the Clintons. Equally. Crooked is crooked is crooked.

Are the Clintons crooked or are you just bitter that your dream died? I'm not sure what animal regulations you mean exactly, but some animal regulations ARE needed.

Mr. Welch, I was in college in the mid 1980s, at the height of the HIV/AIDS epidemic. My best friend, who was not an actual brother, died of HIV-related cancer in 1991. Many of 'us' in college at the time muddled our way through that with ZERO vaccine against that virus, and only half-assed medical information to work from. The "normal stuff" of adolescence and youth normally would have involved more promiscuity and sleeping around for "us". Somehow, we didn't end up emotionally scarred from working our way through early adulthood in a less transmissible, but more fatal (slow-moving) epidemic. This 'drama' about how emotionally scarred young folks are going to be is massively overblown. Please stop that BS.
