[quote=Anonymous]17:58 again. OP, please accept my apologies I had not seen your earlier post re needing to drink formula or tube feed.  That one's tough, but I would wonder if a modified version of what we did above would still work somewhat.  In other words, if there is an activity in school where other children get food rewards, have some small non food prizes (decorations, mini superballs, etc.) available for your son. Eventually, maybe the teachers would move away from food and more toward other things.    This may be a stupid question, but if he can drink formula are there different flavors of formula so that some seem more like a treat than others?  Or if the flavor cannot be changed would h ebe allergic to just adding food coloring so he could have a drink that is more festive during a birthday party?    Ultimately, we found that our child's friends became DC's best advocates for safety over the years and fully accpeted and understood her allergies in the later elementary school years, so that's not far off for your son.  I would fight homeschooling unless absolutely necessary.  Our kids are very different b/c of their food allergies to begin with -- the last thing I would have wanted is to deny my child more opportunities for friends and socialization because DC's food allergies.  Good luck!    [/quote]
