[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Common cold=send your kid to school. Everyone does and you just have to accept it if it makes you angry. If your child isn't feeling up for going to school thats a sign of a bigger illness and they should stay home. Fever= Definitely stay home.[/quote]

Stop being a lazy and selfish parent and keep your kid home.  There are kids/adults with serious medical issues and a common cold could trigger a more serious issue for them.  You are extremely selfish.[/quote]

Good lord, step down. People function with minor colds all the time. And like the PP said above, it's likely not a cold but allergies. They're terrible right now. If you need a plastic bubble for your kid, go buy one. [/quote]

Its not about your child functioning, its about spreading and sharing germs, that may be no big deal to you but could be fatal to someone else.  [/quote]

I can't believe you're seriously taking this position.  This is either a minor cold or allergies.  If the spread of germs is going to be fatal to someone else, that person needs to be the careful one, not everyone else in the world.  Teach all kids to wash their hands frequently, but staying home for a cold?  Um, absolutely not.[/quote]
