[quote=Anonymous]As a parent I become annoyed with parents who send their kids/ youth to school with fevers/ colds/ sore throats/ stomach problems. I also become annoyed with the school when it fails to notify parents of cases of highly contagious illnesses such as strep throat and lice. To be fair, some kids are silent carriers and transmitters of strep and other bacteria/ viruses. Teachers/ school nurses and parents need to work together to contain spread of flus/ strep/ etc. none of us can prevent school epidemics on our own. That said, I send my kid with hand sanitizer attached to her back pack and ask her to wash her hands regularly throughout the day. We also do a lot of immune building (good diet, adequate sleep, supplements) and that seems to have helped enormously. Please, teachers and parents and school nurses - we need to work together to protect the health of our kids. [/quote]
