Let's play the scenario. They wore masks and took every precaution. If someone was watching their child, it was probably a date night (you know married couples do that) or the first night out in a long time.
How dare people attack these people for going out? A few have said "well, I wouldn't have. . ." As flippant as this sounds, good for you. You aren't them and you don't know their situation.
People are entitled not to be shut-ins. No one has a right to second guess someone. They wore masks, they took precautions and were told, by a place of business, that because of the mask, they weren't welcome. That's the issue, not that they went out.
Hell, maybe they got a sitter and wanted to go out because of cabin fever.
I am disgusted people would attack and criticize this family. Having an at-risk for illness child does not mean you can't go out, and it isn't child abuse either.
