Apparently according to the 'experts' we were given things like peanut butter too early in our growth. What we innocently did not know then, but no now. too late. I am allergic to peanuts, but not such a severe allergy. I hear they are going to have it so other kids cannot have thier beloved PBJ at school because of this, this is wrong, taking away others rights for those that can't do for themselves. I think this is unfair and again the government seeing only with tunnel vision. Those parents who have kids with such severe allergies should be teaching their kids to take their own safety into hand and not expect others too, or take selfishly away from others. Tell your kid to eat in another area, this is all that has to be done, no one else needs to be put out, or inconvenienced because others cannot think or do for themselves. I have a very strong reaction to people peeling oranges, am I going to stop them from doing that. NO. I will move to another spot if possible, or cover my nose.
There is no need to tell others they cannot have peanut butter in the schools, that is ridiculous. It seems these type of people want it their way and no other way, with no thought to anyone but themselves, and that is not fair or equal. The world is not all your way. Everyone has rights, no one has the right to take any of those away. I will send my kid to school with whatever I want to put in their lunch, and I have had words with teachers, and I continue to put in what I want in their lunch. My kids were also told not to share their lunch, my daughter one time years ago did not finish all her lunch and the teacher was going to give it to some kid whose lazy mother had not made him one. I told her she owed my daughter lunch. because we have a rule in our home, what you do not eat at school, can be an after school snack or taken home for the next day. I was not always rich, and certainly not when the kids were young. I worked two jobs to climb up the ladder. It is not my job to feed the damn neigborhood.
anyhow, I have many food allergies, I just deal with it.
People are allergic to starches, flours, etc. I am, and found out that one of the medicines I was taking for hives had starch in the pill, and most do, so I take reactine for the itch and hives that come from foods, dust, pollen, etc.
Reactine will help those bumps you get from touching foods that you are allergic to,then touch yourself, you get hives, reactine works great.
They should have different areas where kids with severe peanut allergies can eat in peace, and without taking the rights of others away. A democracy, isn't that novel. Equality for all (not just whiners, I know the squeeky wheel gets greased, but this is getting to be asinine), and even more novel idea.

Hmm, never heard of the peanut butter clause in any rights, but the right to life, that's definitely in there.
How does the person with the allergies know that the spot they move to isn't contaminated with peanut butter? Or in class students who ate peanut butter during lunch/recess may still have it on them. Pretty hard to know that. So don't allow it.
Don't like it? Quit your bitching. Right to life supercedes right to eat peanut butter.

No one is bitching toots. You know idiots sure come up with a lot of 'what if's', it is getting stale. That is tough luck isn't it. The person who smells like a cigarette after going outside for one, is not austracized as badly as some poor little child trying to get some nourishment. OUr nanny state is getting ridiculous, and those that need rules for everything, told everything are getting to be a big pain in the ass. whine whine whine. what is next. Should I go lobby the damn government (therefore waste time and money on something I can deal with myself as a functioning human being) to stop people from eating oranges in public, on the planes, bus stops (good thing I don't frequent busses or park benches), how utterly stupid would that be.
I never read any clause either about what a person can eat pertaining to rights nor did I state that. But you read what you want, if that is how you better understand things. You are probably one of those whiners who think it should be all their way, or no way.
Well a person does have the right to eat what ever they damn well want, that is called a right to life, you fool. (it is called freedom, I know it is hard for a Canadian to know what that is). If they are going to start with bull**** like this, limiting people, then I am going to lobby for the government to stop public perfume use, eating oranges, the stench of cigarettes on a person (I am allergic), lets stop cars the fumes are killing us. Lets just hide in our homes, that is your way of thinking. Pity.
Oh and if I want to bitch about something I will, so if you are talking to me Hitler don't bother, I have no tolerance for tyrants, or those with the...me, me, me attitude. It is what a forum is for, not trolling for attention, or dates, or friends, I have plenty of real ones. It is my right to do anything I damn well want. And I will eat what I want anywhere I want, and so will my kids. Arrest me.
What is next in that head of yours, telling bakeries, they have to put all peanut smelling treats away, because some person might be allergic to peanuts, and might accidently touch some residue? Oh my!!!!!! Carry some hand wash, and sterilize the area if you are that paranoid, that you are afraid to live, or let others live.

Right, who cares if someone dies, but heaven forbid they can't eat peanut butter. The fact that you are putting a food choice above someone's right to life in a public place is telling. You're a whiny bitch, who wants what she wants, damned to all others.
I'm not whining about anything, I'm telling you how it is. Suck it up buttercup.
By the way, scents are already banned in some public areas, just as the same as some schools and peanut butter.
I don't know what makes you so dumb, but it really works!

You had better suck it up yourself, never mind telling others how to conduct themselves it is none of your damn business. Grow up!

Anyways you cannot expect the world to cater to ones whims, to cater to one interest group. If something as simple as someones peanut butter sandwich is going to cause you death, best to stay home, as you cannot stop the consumption everywhere you go. It is not a perfect world, and pity those that try to make it one. Go live in your bubble and leave life to those who live it, not whine, nor for it to stop functioning because you got a boo boo.

It has something to do with equal opportunity and respect. No, it's not a perfect world. We all have to share it with some less-than-desirable realities. Most often it's that kid who'd most like to eat that peanut butter sandwich who can't have it - but it's the trouble makers who make things hard on everyone.

I'm not the one telling kids to go eat somewhere else. I'm not whining about the nasty government telling me what to do. You are telling others how to live. You don't have the grey matter between that vacuous space between your ears to stop contradicting yourself.

Immuune mediated illnesses such as Crohn's disease may possibly share the same problem with an overactive immune system. Similar to a child - if you do keep the immune system busy, it gets up to all sorts of mischief.
I remember reading a study comparing rural children to city children in Zimbabwe and the incidence of hayfever and asthma was much higher in the city kids -the rural kids were exposed to pollen, grass seed and hay on a regular basis.

A very reasonable explanation, and possibly/probably the answer as to why peanut allergy was relatively scarce 20-30 years ago.
A friend of mine who took a couple courses in immunology said one of the working theories is that kids are too clean. Lack of exposure to anything that sparks an immune response means that they end up with a hyper active immune system that overreacts to things. But, that was just one view.

AMIGQIRA! Good post. I had a doctor tell me years ago that I am too clean, my house, etc. I will pay one day. There may be some truth to this, hmmm?
