Fine, so have a "Peanut Free" area in the cafeteria, problem solved. Whay have the inverse? This child will not go through life with his/her path being cleared before him/her of peanuts, just better get used to it.
If my daughter had allergies severe enough that common precautions to avoid it were not enough, I would not send her to public school. And yes, it is that simple.
I do not believe that it is societies responsibility to bend over for my needs.

In my first post I said I'm not sure the school is using the best solution. However, I strongly disagree with the people who think the child is part of some "fringe group."

This is true, but as I pointed out in another post, we protect very young children from other dangers -- street traffic, going places by themselves -- simply because they are too young to safely handle these things by themselves. As they get older we don't coddle them as much. Exactly why should this life-threatening allergy be any different?
