I guarantee you that schools were not throwing out peanut butter sandwiches when I was a kid, and many of the schools I went to are doing so now.
I'm sure you can find an article about peanut allergies at any point in recorded history where they had peanuts.
- fzeroracer 4y agoYes, and my schools were not throwing out sandwiches either. Schools started doing so because it became a serious liability issue with kids weaponizing it for bullying and leading to death. Unless you have a solution for the human condition that will stop people leveraging deadly allergies as a form of torment, then schools will keep doing so.
- TreeRingCounter 4y ago> Schools started doing so because it became a serious liability issue with kids weaponizing it for bullying and leading to death This sounds completely absurd and hyperbolic, but let's say I took it at face value - why is this an issue now and not an issue when I was in school?
- fzeroracer 4y agoI literally posted a story where this was happening, did you not read the link I shared? There are multiple other examples in just the past few years, and the thing is that all it takes is one inciting incident to cause massive problems for the school district.
- drewrv 4y agoWhy are you expecting the world now to exist as it was when you were a child?
- TreeRingCounter 4y agoThis has nothing to do with expectations - it's an inquiry into why something is worse now, without a clear justification.
- drewrv 4y agoYour only argument for why it's "worse" is that it was different when you were in school. Maybe it was "worse" when you were in school.
