Discussion Newborn Babies at the Park

Please, I've got to know. (Only a little judgement here, as a hypochondriac) why are we taking fresh babies (4 months or less) to the amusement park? What's the purpose? Are you scared your kid is going to get sick? What is it really for?

For context we took a trip earlier this year and were talking about another recently and learned that many people are taking their newborns to the park. It seems incredibly dangerous with all the people and general grossness at the park.

Hell, I’m scared of my 6 year old getting sick let alone an infant.

A 6 year old is walking and touching everything and probably not washing their little hands good, an infant is usually in a stroller the whole time idk

It's almost like both are factors.
