The Peanut allergy kid is going to have to learn to live in a world filled with peanuts.

Coddling him at school by creating an environment that ignores reality only serves to harm him in the long run, IMO.

I'm sorry but I agree - those kids with peanut allergies are going to have to live in the rest of the world when they get out of school & need to learn how to handle it. I had extreme allergies as a kid - chocolate & strawberries to name a couple which brought on SEVERE asthma attacks (also a life & death situation)

Did I get segregated? Heck no! I was taught to stay away from those foods & always carried my inhaler with me. What has happened to PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY? Now an entire school is held responsible & the entire student body suffers for a few students that can't be responsible themselves????
The PC BS has got to stop!
