[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How come Type I diabetic kids have been sitting out EVERY food and candy related school function for decades, and no one said shit about their feelings, yet now the FA thing is taking over our schools?

Food for thought.[/quote]

I'm against food in the classroom. Period. So I will agree that it's unfair to the diabetic child. 
However, a diabetic can cover with insulin, it's not the same as a FA child eating something the body has a potentially deadly immune response to[/quote]

You're right, that does make it a little different in terms of the consequences of the child getting a hold of the food.  But the OPs point was that it would be a bummer for the FA kids to sit out, and on that point it's not that different.  The idea that diabetic kids can "cover" with insulin is a relatively recent development in thought process for diabetes care, and not the easiest way to manage blood sugars.  Trust me when I tell you high and low blood sugars can be terrifyingly dangerous.[/quote]
