10 people die every year from peanut allergies.
About 10,000 children are hospitalized annually with traumatic brain injuries from sports, 2,000 children drown each year, and about 1,300 die in gun accidents.
If I thought my child would die from peanut butter, I wouldn’t send them to school. The risk is too great. Since the schools are full of kids with Sudden Peanut Death Syndrome, I can only conclude that the death of the child just isn’t a big deal to the parents. Or that the peanut thing just isn’t that big a problem.
..........in 2002, the last year I could quickly find statistics, there were 26 deaths and 4,500 injuries at Public Schools.
Instead of peanut butter, let’s ban “public” schools AND NEA teachers!
Same people? I guess they are slow learners.
OK...it was a bit of a wise-a** comment...my bad.
Then the risk is essentially zero. Ten times that many die just from being struck by lightning.
