Meaning of the quote
In this quote, the journalist is saying that children don't have to wear masks when they are at home or in places that are safe and under control. This means that kids can relax and be themselves without having to cover their faces with masks, like they might have to do in other public places. The quote suggests that children should be able to feel comfortable and free in the familiar and secure environments of their own homes and other trusted settings.
