So what do I do? Grab the snack and throw it out. I don’t care if I make an enemy out of every parent and nanny in the park. You will have to learn to aggressively put your child first because everyone around them won’t ever.

Let them be angry. My child’s right to life is more important than your kids snack.

I’m not saying your kid can’t go to the park and eat a peanut butter and jelly sandwich for a picnic. Wash their hands, etc. But having your kid run around on the equipment with a bag of Bamba’s leaving peanut oil residue on every surface means we can no longer play.

And I do understand we live in a “I, me and mine” society where it’s ok if not encouraged to get yours and do what you want because how your actions effect others isn’t your problem. I understand. I’m sad, that’s not how I’m raising my kids but I get that’s a key American value especially in dog eat dog D.C. but can we just try to have a little concern for others?

You’re the one who doesn’t care that some kids are severely sensitive eaters and that peanut foods might be all they’ll eat.

Does being a sensitive eater also prevent a kid from eating in their stroller or sitting on a park bench?

They can sit wherever they want.

I think there is a psychosomatic element to all these “allergies.”

Kids today are allergic to everything because they’re so sheltered.

NP

There was a kid in my dorm with a life threatening peanut allergy and yes, his room was peanut free. Because, duh. His roommate, a reasonable guy, was also fine with it. Again, duh.
