Well, it has to be kept in perspective:
Some people are SEVERLY allergic to peanut oil. A peanut oil allergy isn't like being lactose intolerant. It can cause death, even the tiniest drop. And even the smell can trigger serious symptoms. Truthfully, it's just dangerous for some children to be around peanut butter.

Here is my problem with this. Why does the person who indulges in a "normal" behavior (eating a peanut butter sandwich) have to be ostracized and the child who has the allergy goes about his/ her business?

What irritates me is when did we decide that we all must live by the "least common denominator" rule?

If a child is allergic to PB, then THEY should be the ones sequestered - not the rest of the school.

Have a girl on my soccer team, heck of a defender. One day after a win, we decided to go to Dairy Queen to celebrate and she was terrified to even go into the place because of being allergic to peanut butter. She was afraid that if she ordered say...chocolate and they used a scoop with residual peanut butter flavor on it, she would go into seizures and perhaps die. Can't imagine going through life without peanut butter, poor kid.
