[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it is funny. I don't understand people who try to be offended[/quote] OP is not really offended by "kennel cough." She's offended that this woman used the term while also talking up how her nanny is super careful in order to keep her kid from getting sick. Had it been a fellow daycare mom who was like "oh no, I call that kennel cough, Larlo had it in September -- popsicles after dinner helped," OP would not have been offended. It was the comparison and condescension that made it offensive.[/quote]
