[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So he saw the candy, knew not to eat it, didn't eat it and went home to cry to Mommy that you had nuts in your house? This really happened?[/quote]

The kid is 11.   I could see mine making just an off handed comment like "yeah it was a ton of fun but I couldn't eat the candy during the movie because it had nuts in it".  Not complaining or crying, just a comment because he was a little disappointed.  Certainly not thinking I would make a big deal out of it.

If you've known them for years, I don't think they need to remind you of the allergy.  But I don't think she should have reamed you out either.  You said things have smoothed over now.  So you can either choose to let this go or let it bother you to the point it impacts your friendship. [/quote]

OPs friend should tell her kid that other people may have nuts in their homes. They don't have to throw out everything with nuts just because he's coming over. Wrapped candies that are clearly labeled such as "Snickers" are not a huge risk. OP didn't make a birthday cake with nuts, slice and serve it him. That would be different. But the kid needs to be aware that other people don't live in nut free homes.[/quote]
