[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My mom told me that she used to put me on the floor to crawl around, so germ exposure would strengthen my immune system (she was a bio major). I did the same to my kids. We are not compulsive hand washers or germaphobes. I used to get sick a ton when my kids were small and were sick all the time, for months on end. After elementary school it got much better and now I rarely get colds/flu. Hang in there. [/quote] You don't have to be a "compulsive" hand washer to routinely wash your hands before you eat food. Our desire to stay healthy does not support a clinical diagnosis of OCD. Geez...[/quote] I wash my hands after the bathroom and before cooking but not necessarily before eating food. IDK. I don't get sick often and have a very robust immune response to every vaccine. [/quote]
