And the children shall lead us




StaceyC.inKS @StaceyCKs1 Aug 28
Oh my God, I brought my 11-year-old in for highlights as a reward for surviving the first two weeks of school, and our stylist is going on and on about ivermectin.

I’m just gonna sit back and watch my kid destroy her. It’s pretty fun. I’m trying to get some video but I keep getting the stink eye from my 11 year old.

StaceyC.inKS @StaceyCKs1 Aug 28
Oh my God, she’s doing that “I’m only 11 so explain it to me like I’m stupid, why are you taking horse dewormer? It was developed by doctors, so was the vaccine, so what’s the difference?” thing. Face with tears of joyFace with tears of joy

This child is single-handedly tanking my chances at getting elected to the school board, but damn if it isn’t funny.

StaceyC.inKS @StaceyCKs1 Aug 28
Oh God, she just hit her with, “Every single Republican you support has gotten the vaccine.” I have my earbuds in, so it looks like I’m listening to music or something.

I tried to catch my kid’s eye to see if she needs help. She does not. She just texted me, “I’ve got this.”

“Well, yeah, you can make decisions for yourself and deal with those consequences, but my brother has asthma. What if he catches it from one of your kids and dies? You didn’t make a choice for you. You made a choice for him.”

Stylist tried to divert her, she looped right back. “Herd immunity isn’t a thing if Covid keeps mutating. We don’t have herd immunity to the flu.” I blame her doctor for that one. She told her that at our appointment a few weeks ago. That one wasn’t me.

StaceyC.inKS @StaceyCKs1 Aug 28
She’s under the dryer for processing right now. Looks like the fireworks are over

StaceyC.inKS @StaceyCKs1 Aug 28
She literally told the stylist “My mom is running for school board because she believes in science.” God, kid, tell the town crier, why doncha? Face with rolling eyesFace with rolling eyes

Just kidding. She’s not done. “I just thought of another thing. I like your tattoos, but tattoo ink isn’t FDA approved. The vaccine is.”

This is when the fact that she’s 11 is blatantly obvious. Let it go, sweetie. You made your point.

She'd probably do an admirable job, and I'm not kidding or exaggerating here.
