So what is your opinion on your child and other people with illnesses or things that are contagious? I ask because today we were invited to a friend's place for brunch and when we got there their daughter had head lice. Is that okay?
I think that when your child is ill/contagious you inform any other parent whose child is going to come into contact with your child. When I have playdates planned for T and he isn't feeling well I always inform the other parent and leave it up to them. I feel it should always be up to the healthy child's parent(s) to make that kind of call. I have no right to knowingly bring something into somebody's house without their permission.
I was really annoyed with our friends today. I don't think we would have canceled brunch had they told us, I just would have liked the heads up. I like to make the call when it comes to T and his well-being.
Am I being crazy/overly cautious? You tell me.....
