[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No one is complaining about kids with sniffles or kids that are contagious before they are ill. We all know that's part of being in a society. We ARE rightfully complaining about parents who send kids to school with medicated fevers, with still-contagious strep or within 24 hours of vomiting. That's just selfish and irresponsible.

If people are reading who do that -- you do know there are children out there with medical conditions and compromised immune systems, and your behavior is very dangerous to them. [/quote]

I dont think you read the thread especially the block quote in your post which I cut. People are saying that you should keep your kids home before they are symptomatic? Two WEEKS after the diarrhea is gone? [/quote]

Pp of the post suggesting you keep kids home before being symptomatic here. I was kidding. Sarcasm. People just need to understand that there's usually nobody to blame for getting sick. Just because little larla is coughing at school doesn't mean you didn't get your cold from your mildly sniffling co-worker, or the shopping cart. Also, Norovirus can spread long after symptoms disappear. That means, again, you can't pin your virus on the one unfortunate kid who barfed at school. [/quote]

Actually teachers and kids are to blame if they keep coming in sick.  Teachers also need to stop the sharing of supplies OR clean them often so the viruses don't spread.  Teachers need to push more hand washing, cleaning the desks, chairs and other common spaces.  We had one teacher very diligent.  Only year kids didn't seem to get sick as much.[/quote]

For sure teachers need to work harder to keep their class clean.  Bus drivers too (with the buses).[/quote]
