[QUOTE="svengandhi, post: 458044, member: 3493"] When my youngest son was in 2nd grade, 4 different children (including my own) tried to sneak in various different nuts to give to the biggest bully in the grade, who had a nut allergy. My son asked me for a PB & J sandwich for snack one day. I was surprised because he is like me and HATES PB. I asked him why he wanted it and he said to share with X. I also can't stand the child or his mother BUT I'm an adult and I was aware of his allergy. My son did not get a PB sandwich that day or any other day. We did have a long talk about what allergies really mean. He felt a little bad but still kept hoping someone else would get him! I asked the school to never put them in the same class again after that. A girl asked her mom to make PB cookies. She also knew about the allergy and since the kid bullied this girl, too, she also had a reason to dislike him. The mom made oatmeal raisin cookies instead. Another boy snuck in a bag of peanuts and put it in the boy's desk. He saw it and called the teacher over. None of the other kids ever disclosed who the culprit was. My friends and I wonder why this boy's mother doesn't try to get him to be nicer so other kids wouldn't be plotting to try to off him. The child is NOT on the spectrum, he has no Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD) or anything, he is totally neurotypical, just a nasty little jock POS from a rich family with an entitled attitude. At our HS, there is now a no peanut rule for some unknown child. My boys wouldn't dream of bringing anything in even though they have no clue who the kid is. [/QUOTE]
