We are not having fun either.
An adorable 4-year-old girl in Arizona is being praised for saying it as it is and sharing her frustrations about the coronavirus pandemic as her routine has changed and her favorite places remain closed. Since then, video footage of the boy’s candid outburst has gone viral on multiple social media platforms with millions of views.
Blake McLennan was having dinner with his family in March when his parents gave him the news that he was unable to attend dance class due to the closure of COVID-19, reports AZFamily.

“We explained the closure, dance classes would be done for a while, jujitsu would be done,” Rebecca McLennan, the girl’s mother, told KPNX on Friday. “When we mentioned the dance class, Blake missed it.”
The young man was thrilled and his father Ben McLennan quietly began recording Blake’s passionate reaction as he processed the news.
“So now, everything in this world has to be closed completely. No one has to go anywhere because they are closed. The ice cream truck is closed, ”Blake yelled.
“We can’t go anywhere, not even McDonald’s, which is my favorite restaurant!” she continued in tears.
“It is really frustrating. If you go through the drive-thru it is boring because you have to wait for your food to arrive, ”he argued. “If you are inside, playing on the playground, it would not be boring.”
“And the only thing that is open is nothing. Nothing! “Blake exclaimed.
“Except maybe homes like ours,” offered another boy in the background.

In a broader sense, Ben said Blake generally doesn’t have such outbursts and mixed up some of his favorite things during his wild and violent, AZFamily reports, though his logic for feeling frustrated was crystal clear.
“We all thought we’d be out of it already, so for her to still be here, I think we’re all in the place where she was three months ago,” the father told KPNX.
