I used to work at a camp that banned peanuts. Some kids really do have allergies servere enough that if someone across the table was eating a peanut they would have a reaction. I see nothing wrong (or feminist for that matter) with banning peanuts to keep some kids safe. If your child had that severe of an allergy wouldn't you want them to be able to get through the school day without having to worry about breathing the wrong thing?
or would you prefer to keep your peanut butter and risk a child?
