I’ve had peanut allergies all my life and I will phrase it like this: Miserable. Lunch and snack sucked, could barely eat stuff. And YES, I could die because of those cheap sandwiches!

I am here as a person who has suffered with a peanut allergy for the 19 years of my life. I have been researching more and more of this deadly allergy. I am making my own advocacy called the Peanut Allergy Awareness Advocacy For Parents. On this blog I will discuss what a peanut allergy is, symptoms, treatment, foods to avoid, foods to buy, and how to make your children be able to go to school, and you not worrying if they will have an allergic reaction that day. @paaafp
You have crappy video quality Cenk
@GuineaPigWings The masses shouldn’t be forced to sacrifice for the individual.
I started giving my daughter pea butter, it tastes exactly like peanut butter without the allergy issues.
Kicking her would be like kicking out an autistic kid just isn’t fair for her. But here is my idea go to school in a hazmat suit
@rebbecca10491 I’ve been thinking about what we spoke of, Like how to teach children complex things and it seems to me that angels and demons is one easy way to do that. So because children are not so smart, they don’t know what germs are and nor do they comprehend bodily functions. But there are 2 ways to educate a child (1)lie and use religious analogies or (2)simplify, teach them logic and science.
life lessons= define that, it sounds too vague and like story time…extremely fantasy-like.
@geekforlifevandc Allergies are hypersensitivity disorder of the immune system. Allergies in a lot of cases can cause death. There are people who are allergic to peanuts. Allergies can happen to anyone not just people in the us but everyone. I highly doubt that statement what you just said is true. You don’t know everyone in Europe so how would know. Just because you don’t know what know what they does not mean everyone else don’t.
that bitch laughed.
If these precautions are at all reasonable then there is no way it is safe for her to attend. Even surgeons and doctors don’t keep up 100% with hand washing rules, do you think kids will?
And what happens when someone leaves peanut residue on their homework, which is then transferred to their hands and eventually to something she will touch?
I am allergic to peanuts, and I DID finally have to be homeschooled because my school refused to make ANY accommodations for me, so I just kept having reactions until my parents gave public education the middle finger and pulled me out.
Before they did that, my teachers taught me to be ashamed of what I am. To think of myself as a freak because of my allergy, and to hate myself because I am “inconvenient.”
I hope to God this girl is okay.
I think the people who are trying to get the little girl removed from the school are jerks. Wash your hands after lunch and before you come in? You should be washing your hands anyway! Rinse your mouth? Takes a few seconds at most, and probably good for your teeth.
As for accidents, an inhaler or epee pen should be kept in the classroom. Maybe even a peanut free table in the cafeteria. This all sounds reasonable to me when you’re talking about someone’s life
what will she do when she grows up with nuts in her face
@SarahFayeNicole - You need to grow up and get over being a picky eater, and other people’s allergies are the least of it.
I agree with the conclusions here -
1) Not everyone is qualified to homeschool their child.
2) The inconvenience to the little girl, if she misses out on attending school FAR outweighs the inconvenience to the others when they wash and rinse.
3) Severe allergies are only going to become more and more common as our environment continues to become more toxic. The other children are better off learning now how to deal with it.
they dont know what they are talking about there is two kids in that school that has a very servere allergie to peanuts
ummm….shouldn’t they be washing their hands? and rinsing their mouths? C’mon, I bet these kids cavities would come down by A LOT!
@JermzzzyFTW
No, schools shouldn’t be that way. I can only eat certain things because I am a picky eater and so everyday for lunch I eat a peanut butter sandwich. Oh and no one in our school is allergic to peanuts.

I have a friend that is the same way as this little girl, she had to leave the class room because someone had a peanutbutter sandwitch in a ziplock bag in there bag but it wasnt zipped closed so she had to leave and go home. It’s so sad :( I know alot of ppl like this, it isnt that much to ask when its a matter of a childs life.
if she gets 16 years old and is a bitch im gonna throw peanuts at her
home school the damn kid
@chmellen Her rights end when your peanut breath kills her because you wanted to “win.” I’m sure she’d find a college with policies about nuts, and warn future employers. Both would have to comply with the ADA any ways because of federal law. Poor girl won’t even live that long if someone this selfish comes her way. Did Ayn Rand write a chapter on screwing with the disabled or something?
