I keep reading here over and over again that children can't catch corona so I would like to bust that myth. Yes, they're less likely to catch it. Yes, they're less likely to transmit it. But, they definitely can.
Case in point:
My young daughter caught it in school here in Israel (asymptomatic). Then I came down with it. Then my husband came down with it. And now my young four year old son has it, with a headache and fever.
So just want to make you all aware, that children CAN catch it and pass it on.

Caught it from her daughter. Hence my question how old her daughter is. Scientists have been studying and discussing the risks of children of various ages, which is why I was curious if DD is 2 or 6 or ...
