Why don't kids with severe allergies go to special schools?

so you're saying separate but equal?

I agree. That's why I support five guys. A private business that has decided to alienate broken individuals with peanut allergies

Makes me miss O'Henry's and Texas Road house. Peanuts all over the floor.Lol

Maybe insensitive, but I feel like the severity of these allergies is way overblown.

She was having reactions at 8 months old, bub.
Introducing a child to peanut butter doesn’t guarantee that they won’t have allergies towards them, because not all allergic reactions are the same.
It’s funny doctors/scientists are recommending earlier exposure to peanuts and now every kid that has the allergy it’s the parents fault. It’s not that cut and dry

Sounds nuts

my ex was allergic to peanuts. we had to be picky about where we would eat out. we went to a restaurant and was told that they didn't cook with peanut oil. their house made salad dressing was made with peanut oil, though. she ended up in the hospital for a couple of days. i thought she was gonna die at the table. scared the hell out of me. called 911 and luckily there was a walgreens nearby and the pharmacist gave us an epi pen since dumbass ex had forgot to bring hers.

I'm not saying every business should try to cater to every allergy but the reactions can be very severe. If a restaurant seemed unsure of what they used we wouldn't eat there.

Man, I do love peanut butter alone on a spoon or a good PB&J once in a while.

Texas Roadhouse is still there, baw, on the West Bank in Harvey.

I have a child who just started kindergarten. After sitting through the parents' orientation I'm convinced it's easier to get crack-cocaine in the school than anything made from a peanut or ANYTHING that could have possibly passed by a peanut at any point in its production. All told, out of a class of 100+, I think only 2-3 kids have peanut "allergies." (one mom said the allergey "wasn't that bad", so I don't know what the frick to think) Nonetheless, that means all lunches and snacks have to pass though the equivalent of US Customs before they are allowed in.

It's ridiculous and this shite wasn't a problem 30 years ago. My school was relatively small (roughly 500 kids total) and maybe 1 or 2 people had a peanut allergy, if that. Moms sent snacks for birthdays, Christmas, etc. all the time and no one got sick, let alone died. Now, apparently, if a peanut even gets within 30 feet of the campus it is treated as if it's a nuclear bomb.

We had to take my youngest child to an allergist (not allergic to peanuts, but wanted to figure out what was giving her rough skin). I asked him about this peanut epidemic. He bluntly said it is because over-protective parents don't introduce peanuts early to their children today and thus, they develop these allergies. He also said that peanut allergies are virtually non-existent in his home country, India, because peanuts are such a dietary staple and children are introduced to peanut products at a a very young age.

Basically, it's an epidemic we as a society created.
