“I feel like the way that I've thought about germs has evolved from one kid to three children,” mom to three boys,“When I just had one boy, I would take them out to an indoor place. I could see a direct correlation. I took them out, now they're sick. I guess I felt more cautious with one because it was so in my face.”After giving birth to her second son, she started to become a bit more lax when it came to germ-fighting and avoiding certain places just in hopes of healthy children.
“I have healthy kids that are going to get sick sometimes. They're going to catch something from other kids. They're going to catch something from a play place. They're going to be sick, recover, and then we'll get over,” she said. Despite her ease about sick kids, she understands that pushing away those kinds of anxieties is easier said than done, especially being a new mom.
Several TikTok users resonated with Ashcraft’s point, noting that sometimes the risk is worth the reward.
