Friend of mine had a baby recently. Seems that they “automatically” test for allergies at birth these days. They were given a laundry list of things the baby is allergic to - peanuts among them.
After reading about this testing online, it seems that there are a bunch of false positives. Parents are being told that their children are allergic to things that are perfectly okay to eat. The medical establishment’s position seems to be “better safe than sorry.”
In the meantime, we are raising a generation of weenies who feel it is their right to inconvenience the world.
Heavy sigh.
the baby was found to be defective
