This is an article by Linda Coss, the author of several food allergy cookbooks and support books:
Dear Support Groups,
Last year I wrote a great article, “Attack of the Killer Peanut Butter Sandwiches,” that explains why it is necessary for schools to enact a variety of measures to keep food-allergic children safe, and why it is not as simple as teaching the food-allergic children to “be careful.” I wrote this in a tone that comes across as sympathetic to the viewpoint of the other kids’ parents, while making it clear that precautions really are both necessary and reasonable.
Since then this article has been available for parents, educators, and medical professionals to distribute in their local areas. Last year I received a terrific response and was told that many schools included this in their fall information packets. With back-to-school season upon us, I just wanted to remind everyone that the article is still available at:
Explaining School Food Allergy Rules and Restrictions to Other Parents Please help me to spread the word!
Best wishes,
