[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'll reiterate that this thread, at base, is just about shaming parents.[/quote]

No, parents asking other parents to keep their sick kids home and not infect the rest of us.  How is that unreasonable?  [/quote]

Because read the thread.

As has been reiterated a number of times in this thread, kids have colds, etc. all of the time during this season.  They are not avoidable.  Making parents take 8 weeks of work off (e.g., one week for each cold) is obviously not something that's going to happen.  Because parents need to work to support their children.  (Sidenote: there was also recently a thread on here shaming people for trying to get sick care sitters.  That's the back-up for single parents.)

So instead of recognizing these very basic truths (colds exist + people have to work), people like yourself come on here and harp about those parents hating their kids, having no community feeling, not caring about teachers.  People are literally saying that parents who send sick-with-colds kids to school should feel "shame."

All these types of threads do is try to shame parents to behave differently.  Ergo, it's just about shaming parents.[/quote]

The colds keep circulating because parents like you keep sending their kids in sick, which punishes the rest of us who keep our kids home.  You should be ashamed of yourself.  [/quote]

I have to think at this stage you are a troll.[/quote]
