I could see things starting to really ease up once all children have had a chance to be vaccinated and everyone else has had a chance to get their 6 month booster shot.

Children aren't at risk from Covid at all. https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-021-01897-w In the US, 340 children under 17 have died from Covid. Total. During the same period, 187 have died from the flu, and over 51,000 children have died from all causes:

They are more likely to be injured by these vaccines and neurotic parents stuffing them into masks for hours at a time.

"at all"? What? Tons of children end up with post-acute sequelae. Where are people getting this notion that the only possible negative outcome of viral or bacterial infections is death and that that's the only stat we should look at? https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7927578/

A portion of parents are very worried about Covid in their children. These parents have sway with school administrators and local governments. All I am saying is that I doubt we get total easing of Covid restrictions until these kids have had ample chance to be vaccinated. I'm not making any arguments or claims about what you are taking about.

Do children who get infected spread it?

Not everyone is eligible for a booster shot.

This is true, but moot in my area.

The local pharmacies that administer the vaccines are not validating your eligibility. Those I know who are interested in the 3rd round, and beyond 6 months from their 2nd, have received it.

Yes - which why I doubt we will see full "reopening" everywhere until they open up boosters to everyone and provide time for people who want them to get them.
