Facebook is a literal treasure trove of cringey parents who think they know it all. One such mom took to the social media website to see other moms thought of holding "Coronavirus parties" for their children, citing "Chicken pox parties" as inspiration. These parties are supposed to expose children to a disease with the intention of having them "get it over with." But coronavirus is not the same as chicken pox. If kids get it and pass it on to the elderly or immunocompromised, they could die. After the post was shared to r/insaneparents, redditors went in on the batshit mom. We really hope that people aren't actually having COVID-19 parties. Things are bad enough as it is.

    Text - unsavvylady · 7h This stupid person is why coronavirus will continue to spread. You can't talk sense into stupid. Kids don't even get as sick but will carry it to their elderly grandparents who could very well die from this.

    Text - echoshep • 5h Simply put, the right wing in the US has spent the past 30-40 years pushing anti science, anti authority rhetoric. That's why so many people today think they're "opinion" is just as valid as scientific research and experts consensus. 1 21 meemojeemo · 5h But HEY. Mums know best.
