Subject: Peanut

I completely agree with the better safe then sorry approach. My opinion may be bias because I too just found out that my son has a severe peanut allergy. Eventhough I work at his center, I can rest assure that he will not have a reaction since we don't serve peanut butter. It does make me very nervous that sometimes parents bring in snacks and it scares me to death that one may slip past the goalie and he gets peanut butter crackers or something to that effects. I myself have some very severe food and medication allergies and have spent many nights in the ER finding out what they were. I don't want my young son to have to go through that needlessly or risk his life, especially since we are living in a foreign country and have not yet become fluent in the language. S.
