Parents and caregivers scoured store shelves, driving hours in some cases to look, and reached out to family members nationwide, searching for what their babies needed.
Or baby tylenol! or baby ibuprofen!
They want to blame everything on russia, are we going to blame that on Russia too? Is Russia buying up all the baby Tyelonol?

Many parents are going around to many stores trying to find baby formula. How many aren't?
Our baby only needs formula at bedtimes now and we were able to secure a steady supply such that we've got a consistent 1 month supply on-hand at all times. You know what? That took resources! It's taken resources! We've sometimes had to head to 6 different stores, and we've had to spend hours at it!
I know lots of parents at the bottom who for various reasons aren't going to do that. Either they can't, or they won't.
Between this, the damage to social skills and other forms of intelligence from lockdowns, the damage from degraded school programs, and I'm sure more that will come to light later, an entire generation of children are going to be damaged. It isn't going to harm upper middle class kids, but the lower middle class and below are going to be annihilated.

Who would have thought this could happen in America?
