Response Video for the H1N1 Flu Citizens Project www.flu.gov

Alexandra plays the main character. Typical overprotective, (and a little paranoid) mother who frantically scrubs all surfaces in the home daily. She makes her children take vitamins and Omega 3's and makes sure they get plenty of rest while eating a balanced diet and keeping them hydrated. Each child goes to school with hand sanitzer, facial masks, and tissues crowding their backpacks. She usually does not let them enter the home with the clothes that were worn that day in school, (being the germaphobic that she is). She even has cabinets well stocked with food and water for emergencies whether it be due to weather or pandemic, this lady is ready! Michael plays the typical kid, who sneezes and doesn't wash his hands before eating or touching stuff around him. The two sick children are played by Addie and Jacob and are also typical children who cough in the air and try to stay where the action is when they are sick. They hate staying in bed and would rather be hanging out with friends. They don't think to stay in their rooms to avoid the spread of disease. Is there a happy medium between the adults and children in this home? Maybe if they go to www.flu.gov they can get the facts on staying healthy and helping to stop the spread of germs if they do get sick.

We did, we had a blast. It was kind of fun. The best part was when we would mess up we would all start laughing and then get the giggles on the next take. I think we'll make more movies as a family just for fun now.

your own snot wont get you sick if you eat it.

LOL, We wrote a script and Alexandra forgot her lines, so that part was not supposed to be in the video, but with all the cuts we had when the baby would come running into the kitchen, or the cat would show up and jump on the counter and distract us, we decided we were tired of retakes. We wrote a script (Mom did) and we had lines for this skit, it should have been 2 1/2 minutes to get the real comedy in it, but we had to rush it and like I said, Alexandra panicked LOL

Yeah, with a family the size of the Brady Bunch my parents always make us wash up and take showers after school. We mop the floor two or three times and day and they make us take vitamins, go to bed early, and all sorts of stuff like that to prevent us from getting sick. My dad's microbiology professor in college worked at the CDC so he and my mom are like the germa phobic character we created in the skit LOL! :P

i was just saying at the begging there was no reason to fake sneeze on his hands because your own snot wont get you sick.but the part that he just got home from school is a good enough reason to was his hands.
