If they REALLY cared for her, then she wouldn’t be in public school with all the other kids. There is absolutely NO WAY you can guarantee a peanut-free school for all traces.

If they are that sensitive, a kid eating a peanut cracker BEFORE school could touch little PRECIOUS and then what!

That’s exactly the problem.

Traces of peanuts can be on the kid’s hands, face, clothes, books, or anything else the child touches.

What are they going to do? Prohibit peanuts form the homes of these children as well?

And what about the kid who thinks it’d be a cool practical joke to expose the girl to peanuts, just to see what happens?

Or the kid who tries it because they don’t really believe that the girl could react so bad and they want to see for themselves, just out of curiosity? Children do not have a real good concept of how life threatening something like that can be. Yeah, they’d know that it could make the girl have a *reaction*, but don’t really comprehend what that reaction would be and how easily it could kill her.

Heck, there are even adults who don’t believe how serious allergies can be.
