Why doesn't she just leave the house when she wants?

and not say where she goes and meet up with the boyfriend. When I walk out the door, it's none of my roommates business where I am headed. There are many exceptions to the stay at home rule.

That girl sounds annoying. Let her move out.

She might be annoying, but she's not wrong on this.

Seriously. But it's human nature to care about yourself more than other people.

you could say that about the roommate too

Absolutely. And you, and me, and everyone else on Planet Earth. So the next

It’s a value judgement and you can’t claim one is right and one is wrong.

Are you and your wife social distancing?

EXTREME social distancing. In fact, I probably have never seen her in person yet

Wait, what? Are you serious...I know my TIC meter is off, so I need to ask.

IF your daughter wants to take over the rent, allow her to leave.

This at BYU?

No. A city in California

I'm in SF, 16 days shut in. Let's not draw this out longer than necessary.

Can see both sides but if you’re a roommate than my take is

The situation needs clarifying. Where are they, and what are their jobs?

ReyOso

3/29/20 11:21am

San Francisco. They all have professional jobs and are working at home

run26

3/29/20 11:24am

So if they are all WFH, then why is that girl even concerned? Man, people

All working at home limits the risk significantly. Still, it's a violation.

Just ignore the roommate. Shes insane.

The good news is that people who don’t have it can’t spread it.

Turnpike Lane

Agreed. The bad news is people can have it and not know it.

All it takes is 1 out of the 8 to break or bend their distancing

If both sides have the same quarantine rules

My daughter is trying to be transparent and ethical

run26

3/29/20 1:10pm

It's not unethical to not say where you're going

donnerstag

3/29/20 1:14pm

Because we're in a plague, and the city and state have asked us not to.

ReyOso

3/29/20 1:13pm

No. There's a "Stay at Home" order

I feel bad for your roommates.

I feel bad for people with your mindset

Unethical and possibly illegal at the same time.

ReyOso

"Plague". You act like this is the black death

Backcountry

Dead is dead, no matter what caused it.

Risk factors are dramatically different between the plague and CV-19

I didn't say "THE" plague, I said "a" plague, as in an infectious pandemic.

Sounds like Roommate “X” does not have a boyfriend.

She sounds like a psycho

Is the roommate over the age of 60? Does the roommate have a boyfriend too?

her mom is a nurse. so that plays into it. i didn't want to mention that ...

Mom could also be overly influenced based on the extreme cases she's seeing too.

Your daughters roommate who opposes it is listening to social media who are

She lives in SF. It's more than a suggestion here.
