Trust me we have been Trying but still flat out Refuses to get Vaccinated at this Time.

Tell her she can't do anything without being Vaccinated.

Her Boyfriend keeps telling her to stop Watching the Crap on Tik Tok

Sorry about your Dad Dave, this stuff is hard for everybody in different ways.

If your mum is concerned about your Dad, she can call Lifeline, Beyond Blue or any number of other services. The most simple is to get him to the family GP, word them up beforehand what he's been saying, if the GP is concerned they can trigger a mental health plan and refer him to a treatment provider.

In regard to your sister, good luck. No amount of logic will change her mind, it will have to be the emotional appeal. Remind her that all the Vaccinated family members will soon be able to go out for lunch together, she'll have to stay home by herself.
Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.

Thanks Stui. Yeah we are keeping any eye out for him.

Hopefully now being Allowed back to Golf in a Few Weeks that might put him a Better Frame of Mind.

The Crap Weather at the Moment does not help much Either as he loves being outside

Could try that but we are not really going out to Lunch kind of People.

But been telling her that Every other Adult in our Home (Dad/Mum/Her Boyfriend) can go and do things but she would just have to stay home not doing very much

I get the "not going to lunch people" :wink:

Focus on stuff she likes that she won't be able to do. Don't push it, just remind her. Stuff like, Oh well, while you're waiting for more info you'll be waiting home alone instead of going to XXXXX

True going Hard would just make her want to get it less.

1 of My Carer's also also Anti-Vaccine so good going out with him but we won't be able to do a Ton of Stuff Though.

He even said he would not Support any Company that Supports that only Vaccinated People be allowed to go in and use the Company

Don't understand why people who work in the Healthcare don't have the vaccine. It is in their nature to protect and look after people, if it isn't find another job!

He is a Nice Bloke but some of his Idea are out there.

He thinks the Vaccine and Covid is all about the Public Being Controlled and Also Population Control.

He also thinks that we should just have Home Lockdown which is you are only in Lockdown when you tested Positive so not Lockdown for everyone just people with Covid.

Also thinks he is Christian so Jesus/God will make sure he is Okay

People who think Jesus will protect them need to have a good hard look at some of the bible belt in the USA.

This is all bringing out the worst in many people. Those anti lockdown protesters were seriously violent. Some of them copped a beating from Police which at any other time may have raised eyebrows, but not this time IMHO. The bought it on themselves.

And the conspiracy theorists.......really? I mean, I'm no fan of Andrews but anyone who genuinely thinks he's doing all this, bankrupting business and ruining lives just for a power trip need to seek medical help themselves. Fkn delusional. His so called "plan" out of lockdown should dispel any ideas that he's a great strategist.
