The teacher is a nut. A kid with a nut allergy is going to be out of school and into the wide open world someday and cannot be protected.

Best the kid get on with learning what to do right from the beginning. That means he or she has to learn how to AVOID nuts.

Its the schools policy not just her class. So even if there is no one with an allergy in the class...they all have to do the same.
It gets back to ...the rights of the individual over the rights of the majority.
