There’s MA a kid who may or may not go to his city’s Middle School next year and he has a Latex Allergy. They are gutting the school all all Latex and Plastic.

How ever will they perform the cucumber drill? What a conundrum for the liberal educator; which sacrament to omit?

Oh that’s ridiculous! I’m mildly sensitive to latex and other than being aware and avoiding things that have it, to prevent the skin irritation, the only “step” I’ve needed to take was have a note put on my chart requesting non-latex exam gloves at the gyno. Beyond that, I suck it up and deal, and remember for next time.

Good luck with eliminating plastic from a modern school. Aren’t all the chairs, bleachers, etc, made of plastic? No one can use wood anymore. Too expensive, and the environazis will yell. Toilet seats, the TP holders, the paper towel holders. All rulers, barrels on mechanical pencils, protractors. How is this kid going to get thru Math classes which are mandatory without all these tools? Lots of bookcovers are plastic, also.
Like I said- Good Luck.....

When my 2nd kid was born there was a room in the new baby ward of the hospital with a big sign, hand drawn, on the door that said NO LATEX.

I was glad to see the folks had finally figured out how that little baby got started but thought they shouldn’t want to tell the world about it ;-)
