Chicken pox can also cause issues and shouldn't be treated lightly.

Back in the day, whenever a child got Chicken Pox, the mom would call ALL of the neighborhood moms and tell them. Then those moms would grab their children and take them by to “visit” the Chicken Pox child to expose them. My ENTIRE neighborhood got the Chicken Pox the very same week. No joke.

Freaky that it was seen as no big deal.

It was literally a party. My Mom shakes her head now whenever it comes up.
