[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Im the OP of the GF thread and have a child with a nut allergy.

My child’s allergies are our problem. He is now a teen and his skin/allergies are now worse. We have visited countless allergists to figure out what is causing his skin to flare. We, too, have tried wheat and gluten free diets.

I would never burden or blame others for my child’s food allergies. Nut allergies are fairly common and anything served at a school is nut free these days. That is why homemade food is highly frowned upon or not served to kids at school.

[b]I do think it is a shitty thing to do to confirm a nut allergy and then use a nut ingredient.[/b]

I have a friend whose son has a severe nut allergy, like life threatening. They carry an emergency kit at all times. The family is very nice and they are always happy to be invited. The kid often is hungry because he can’t eat food being served.[/quote]

Sounds like the mom forgot. For those of us who don't have kids with allergies, it's not common to be thinking about it all the time, especially if you're busy hosting a party. If I made homemade cookies for my kid's birthday I would tell everyone that while I didn't use any tree nuts in them, and while everything I used when making the cookies was clean, we do eat PB in our house and I can't guarantee that there are no traces of nuts anywhere in my kitchen.
