[quote=Anonymous]Think of it this way: there is a poison in every restaurant, kitchen, grocery store, playground, classroom etc. that could kill your child at anytime. It doesn't matter if your kid touches or ingests the poison, either way it could cause a reaction or death. It's often obvious but sometimes invisible so just be careful and do your best. It's terrifying if you really think about it.

I get anxious anytime we are outside of our normal routine, particularly with other people. Also, the older the child gets, the less control she has over this. When they are infants and toddlers you can be the one that literally supplies all the food. As they get older there are more field trips, playdates and birthday parties with a lot of new situations and unknowns.
Also, you can't control every situation. I won't always make the same decisions on what is safe and what is not with my child. I go with my instincts and consider a lot of factors when making these decisions and it can and will always change.

I would teach yourself and your kids to ALWAYS wash your hands with soap and water after eating. Hand sanitizer isn't effective. It will show your sister that you care and you are trying to help protect her child.
