[quote=Anonymous]DD is in daycare and gets sick a lot - runny nose, coughs, fever, diarrhea sometimes. If it's the weekend or I am home, and she is feeling reasonably well, I take her to the playground. I wipe her nose and make sure she doesn't touch anyone else, but I don't keep her home. My thinking is that the park is a public place and others who show up take that risk, so to speak. FWIW, I also let her play with the toys in the dr.s office when we go for sick visits. I don't begrudge other kids with runny noses, at the play ground or dr.s office, perhaps because with daycare, we've come to realize there is little you can do to keep them healthy at all times.. Thoughts? [/quote]
