[quote=Anonymous]I had a friend who’s kids vomited overnight, and she didn’t even give them a bath, and she sent them to school the next day. She otherwise seems like a decent human being. This made me lose hope of the dynamic ever changing. I’ve noticed that some people just don’t really care that much about illness and are completely resigned to just being continuously ill all winter and throwing up their hands as if we are entirely powerless to do anything about it. I hate to say it but I think it gets so normalized in daycare and when you have young kids for the whole family to be continuously ill from October through April. These families get to the point of thinking that it really is normal. I’m a germaphobe and don’t handle illness well so we always had a nanny. My kids did get sick, but much less than my friends who had kids in daycare.[/quote]
