We lost our jobs and home during covid and wound up crashing at my moms house with our baby. It was a rough year.But her house, her rules, plus we wanted to live. So we were very, very strict and didn’t go anywhere or see anyone for the last year.My spouse’s work began again over the winter - he quarantined for a week+ when he returned- and most recently we were able to get the first vaccine dose right before he left for his next work engagement.We were all going to road trip it together but the engagement was shortened and we felt flying was too risky with our young unmasked toddler.Silver lining: spouses childhood family is all fully vaccinated and flew to see him.Here is where it gets weird. Spouse is not fully vaccinated. We’ve been super careful for a year, right? He sends me a video of him with his family indoors eating at a restaurant in a state with high covid rates bc people think covid is a joke.So...this makes me furious. He admits he hasn’t been as careful on this trip. Has had people over in his home there, has gone out to indoor dining.The reason I’m not there with kid is because we thought it was too risky! By exposing himself, isn’t he risking exposing our kid when he returns? He doesn’t get the second dose until he returns.He gaslighted me when I raised my concerns and said we’re out of touch from living with my mom. Maybe. But also maybe peer pressure got to him?I’m genuinely interested in knowing the Reddit take. This is a mixed crowd. So, what would you say? via /r/Parenting https://ift.tt/3xCNM5k
