[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It hit us earlier in the summer.  DH and I managed to avoid getting it.  Kids had a pretty bad time though, and were out of school for many days.[/quote]

How do you think you managed not to get it?[/quote]

Not PP, but I think it's fairly rare for adults to get it. My kids have both had it (at separate times) and I didn't get it. My husband had it when my first kid got it, but not the second time. [/quote]

Adults and even older kids don't often catch it. Not impossible, but not common.[/quote]

Citation? I know I'm a sample of 1 but I had a horrible case with persistent, painful mouth sores that made it hard to eat and drink. [/quote]

I also got it as an adult, but I asked my mom and I never had it as a baby/kid. So I think I got it because I never built up any immunity from past exposure. My guess is the people who get it as parents from their kids are the ones who never had it themselves. (That said, my older kid never had it and didn't get it from her sibling.)[/quote]
