[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If I kept my kid home for every cold, she would never go to school![/quote] Actually, I keep my kid at home for every cold - because then he recovers completely and is ready to tackle school when he is healthy. He does not get sick (even with cold ) very often, because I give him a chance to rest and recuperate. I am SAHM and I can do that. I see many kids with cough, cold and runny nose - being sent to school - for DAYS. These kids never recover fully and they make other kids sick as well. Most of these parents also dose their kids with Tylenol and send them to school. It is sad, but I guess they do not have a choice or flexibility in their work environment. [/quote] How do you know if my kid's hacking cough and runny nose are a virus (i.e. a cold) or allergies? I send my kids to school even though they could stay home b/c I think they are able to handle it... whether it is a cold or allergies. [/quote]
