[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Peanut allergies are different than other food allergies where a child might get a stomach ache or diarrhea. A person can go into anaphylaxis where their tongue /throat swells, blood pressure drops and they stop breathing. [/quote] As someone whose child ended up in ICU from something that wasn’t a peanut, it’s really horrifying to have you imply that somehow peanuts are unique in causing anaphylaxis.[/quote] My son's good friend had this type of allergy to eggs. The mom didn't demand to take over the entire party menu to make sure her son could eat everything. She brought him his own cupcake and pizza. Even at his parties she had one egg free cake and one regular cake. One parent trying to dominate the menu to suit her kid's specific allergy, ignoring what other allergies or dietary issues might be at play is really over the top. Who does that? People want to do the right thing but it's impossible to make any guarantees. [/quote]
