Let's all do our part, parents!
We spoke with Toronto paediatrician Joanne Vaughan, who is not an expert in public health or infectious diseases, but still has urgent advice for families in her practice and tips for parents across Canada, regardless of their city or province.
Various public health departments are advocating very severe restrictions on those kinds of activities, which would include playdates. Not all parents are seeing playdates as a high-risk activity, but especially if your kids are under six or seven, they’re not going to be able to understand that they need to stay two metres away from their friends. My advice in general is to stay home.
Q: What if you’re feeling desperate and isolated? Can you pick one “safe” family to have playdates with? But an older kid like a teenager might be able to go for a run or a bike ride with a friend and understand that they have to stay a certain distance away. That might be acceptable. You definitely want to get the kids some exercise, so getting outside is still important. If you have very responsible teenagers who can go for a walk and stay two metres apart or be on their bikes and stay two metres apart, I think that that’s OK. But if it’s not, then it’s not advisable.
