Children are our future, it’s time to care about them that way

The pandemic taught me to see more children in a new way I was thrilled to find out that the Pfizer vaccine was approved for 12- to 15-year-olds. One step closer to herd immunity and one step closer to a return to relative normalcy, especially for teenagers. I know many parents who are breathing a sigh of relief, and I want more than just parents to be happy about this. Taking care of our children is a communal project; that’s why we call it village parenting. And I am happy to extend the village to the public health officials and the doctors and scientists who made this vaccine possible. Together, as a group, we are loving and caring for one another. A rare moment of solidarity in our sea of individualism, a moment of collectivism and comraderies, despite our increasing atomization.
