[quote=Anonymous]I have the same concerns as OP, but haven't done much about it. Mostly just will reinforce that "we ALL need to go wash our hands now" before dinner. My DH and I always make a point to wash our hands before eating, even when we are out. Sometimes we snag a relative too when we ask them to "help". And I try to limit the amount of time that they are sitting with someone else while that person is eating. Or if my LOs move to sit with them, I'll move over their plate/utensils as well. I'm getting over my germophobia slowly, especially with my side of the family, but I absolutely won't let MIL share foods/utensils with LOs because she gets cold sores. Herpes - so gross!! [/quote]
