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.

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.

This isn't necessarily true. My youngest rarely gets sick. She started kindergarten last year still never sick. Everyone in the house can be puking their guts up and laid up with a fever she still never gets sick. I don't understand it myself but can only guess that she has a very strong immune system.
