I don't have any family around here.

I miss my son a lot they do not allow visitors which has gone on for 3 months. I signed a lease for a senior apartment but not for a nursing home and definitely not a prison. The new rules are a violation of my rights and I blame Donald Trump who is 6 years older than I am and deserves lockdown.

my whole family are cunts

Even before lock down we didn’t do visits for Mother’s Day to protect them. My partner’s gran turned 90 yesterday and we had a lovely video call I talk to my brother and some friends, by hone, more than before I think.

I only miss my sister. I will not visit with her, even on her upcoming birthday, cuz she has a weakened immune system, and I could be a carrier

Well, my family is now scattered around the world, I have my younger brother in London, my older brother and my mother in Brazil and my closest cousins in France and Switzerland. No flights available, even if I could afford, I'm "trapped" in Ireland. Me and some friends made a collective call on WhatsApp for the fun to compensate for not being able to go for a pint. I'll start working from home on Monday or Tuesday the latest, which will be great! Although I can't go for a drink or to tango, as I'm quite anti-social, I think this will be fun for me. Working at home and having my heavy metal always playing, not having people around me... I'm really looking forward to it!

So far it hasn't affected my family, but it sucks I can't go to the gym to get out the house.

Oh they want you to visit. How utterly convenient for them.

Stay home. If they want to see him that badly let them talk someone else into bringing them to your place.

I'm the designated grocery shopper for quite a few elderly family members

The only "visiting" I've done with my family thus far is to do laundry and dad's giving me a lift to my next doctor's appointment in the next county. Beyond that, we're staying to ourselves. The stock market crash tanked their retirement fund, so they're none too thrilled about that. Sis and her family live in Seattle and appear to be doing fine.

My 77 YO mom cancelled plans to visit us as the concert and class we had scheduled were both postponed. We were not sure if she might risk herself (if not had the virus, yet) or risk US (she got sick after being exposed to a coughing sick guy fresh off a plane from Sacremento).

I brought my 23YO daughter home from 4 hrs south of here. We had birthday plans and she worries about me. As a well stocked microbiologist, I can probably set her up as well as anyone,

My 20YO son is staying in his apartment (with his feline room mate), a few miles east of my house. We still visit each other, but are not mingling beyond either home.

everyone will get it so I'm just carrying on as normal

WTH would you want to do that? What part of "highly contagious BEFORE any symptoms appear" do you not understand?

Don’t! Stay put and keep your little family safe. That’s an order from Aunty Marje!

Don’t visit, stay home

I work in urgent care, which currently is the front lines.
I’ve isolated myself from my family to protect them.

What part of "stay at home" is not understood by your family?

My son lives in Seattle WA and is scared, but we won't be visiting each other. My brother lives down the lane on the farm and we see each other more than we'd like, just because we don't get along that well .. peaceful co-existence ... For now the online world and television are my family.
