This article reminds us of how wide spread food allergies have become. If you have a child with food allergies, it is very important that you inform the school that your child attends so that they can be sure not to accidently expose your child to that particular food.

Parents who do not have a child with food allergies must learn to accept that the quick and easy peanutbutter sandwhich that you fix every day just might prove fatal to another child. It might not be as easy for you, but think about how you would feel if it was your child who had the allergy and could die from the exposure.
