...I'm not looking to start a debate and truly understand how severe these allergies can be- here's the story... my son is in full day Kindergarten this year and his classroom is designated a nut free zone due to a child with an allergy. No big deal, send in only treats without peanuts, peanut oil, etc. But... in order to "ensure the safety of this child" his class has to eat lunch IN THEIR CLASSROOM every day! Now, these kids have a small room and 5 year old's need to move so I am very disappointed in this decision. My twins are in second grade in the same school and he was looking forward to seeing them in the cafeteria every day. Now, I'm not saying the allergic child should be "punished"- by eating alone, but I think this is "punishing" the entire class instead. Before I talk to the teacher (and I'm not even sure it matters if I do) what solutions could I present as an alternative?
