[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]First, it must be scary to have a child  with severe allergies.  I am not going to deny how frightening that can be for the child and parents.   Unfortunately, it would be irrational to expect the public to accommodate that.  Daycares, schools and other institutions where there is a known person (employee, student etc) with an allergy is a different story.  A public park can not have those type of limitations.  [/quote]

This.  My son has treenut and peanut allergies, and yes, it is scary.  I do think that he has to learn to manage his allergies in an unsafe world, and that he has to learn to be thick-skinned about it.  If you're shelling peanuts next to him and he gets up and moves away, don't make a snide comment.  He's not asking you to stop, but is removing himself from a situation that's potentially dangerous.

I do think, however, that eating [b]in all sorts of public places [/b]has gotten out of control.  Allergies aside, crumbs, stickiness, and garbage are just gross.[/quote]

You think it's gross to have a picnic in a park? WTF.[/quote]

No. I said in all sorts of public places.  Not a park.[/quote]
