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]

So you realize you're infectious to other people and they'll probably get sick because of you,  but you're too selfish to care.
Americans are not lazy. Just selfish.[/quote]

No, dear, "selfish" is not the correct word.  I think the correct work is that  do not want my child to be "truant."  I do not want my child missing gobs of school when he is perfectly fine playing at home, though needs to wipe his nose on occasion.  The only possible thing I can think of is that you do not have a school aged child yet.  If you do, and you keep your kid home with every sniffle, sneeze, cough, eye water, runny nose, stuffy nose, etc. then GREAT for you and your school-missing kid.[/quote]
