Uh no. The annoying parties in this story are the entitled, self-centered parents who dragged their sick kid out to scream through everyone else's holiday dinner. Because no one else matters, obviously.

Kids are 4 and 2, go to daycare full time, and I’ve never seen them without a crusty runny nose and horrible cough. She says they’re building a great immunity and doesn’t understand why I don’t want my son (18 months) exposer. She thinks it’s ridiculous that he’s never been sick.
Wait until your kid enters school and he'll be sick an entire year. Good luck with that.

NP. It's true. Last week, I witnessed a 10 year old sneeze right into the hot bar at the Friendship Heights Whole Foods. The mother was nearby and didn't bat an eye. The other day, same place, a grown woman must have touched every single avocado on display. I am a city kid, grew up in a condo, and love DC but manners and consideration for others have deteriorated so much that a growing part of me just wants to move to a ranch on Montana and disconnect from civilization.

My DD has Cough Variant Asthma. Often she has what I refer to 'a death hack' but she is not contagious.

NO. I don't care if kid is contagious or not. If they are coughing and screaming, anybody with a functioning brain would keep their brats at home!
Well I would posit that anyone with a functioning brain would know that there are other non contagious causes for a cough. In those scenarios there is no need to stay home.

I’m case anyone was wondering these are the same parents that let their kid watch videos in public at full volume without headphones. And they are shameless about it.
Nope. It’s not like the kid was at their table.
It’s the same level of selfishness. “Only me/my kid/my family and our immediate desires are important. Everyone else in our vicinity can suck it.” Same attitude as the iPad parents.
How does a sick kid in the same restaurant affect you? I wouldn’t bring one, but it’s not the same thing.

It’s what parents of sick kids...aka kids who are in childcare and always sick...tell themselves.

I agree. It’s ridiculous that your 18 month old has never been sick. How is he going to build immunity to anything? He needs to be exposed to
His absence of illness is proof of a strong immune system. You just know the sister has brought them around while they are contageous.
He will be sick all the time whem he starts school.
This. He’ll catch a cold the first week and then a new one every couple after that.
My kids were never sick until they reached school age at which time they caught nearly everything. I have no regrets. Better an older child who can actually talk about how they are feeling rather than a screaming toddler.
